In the Business of Saving Children’s Lives

Kathy — Sun, 27 Apr 2008 18:01:43 +0000

Kristin Salgado, a registered ER nurse and mother of three, developed an instructional DVD that shows the basic steps of proper CPR and Heimlich maneuvers for children. With the help of a local production company (Tommy Rosa film productions). Together they’ve come up with a fantastic video, that’s informative, educational and is up to date with the latest CPR techniques. As a mom Kristin knows how hectic things can be every day. Not too many parents have free time to go out and get certified in CPR, nor does this DVD certify you , but it does offer a very good “crash course”.

Sadly, every year hundreds of children die due to drownings and from choking. This video can decrease these numbers drastically. It’s a wonderful resource for parents and the company is now marketing the video as a school fundraiser to parent-teacher associations in local school districts.
