Sidewalk CPR Day was established to instruct the community on "hands only" CPR. Recent research has shown that correct chest compressions applied in a timely manner can have a significant impact on the survivability of patients.
In the past this event has attracted 60-70 people who received the training from Lakeside Fire District personnel. But this year an amazing 151 people received the training from firefighters at two locations in the community.
