Last year I did a post about the FREE CPR classes that  Brooklyn Hospital (121 Dekalb Avenue) offers, and it still remains one of the most googled posts.  So, I decided to check up on the schedule and make sure my info was still up to date.  Sure enough, they still offer this great resource.

Free Courses in Infant and child Resuscitation (CPR), Car Seat Safety, Choking. First Aid: Burns, Lacerations, Falls, and Poisonings. Class is offered every other Thursday.  Check the website for the schedule of classes.

Take advantage of this amazing free resource! If you’re not local to Fort Greene, check with your local hospital to see if they offer something similar. You might be surprised!

Cameron and I had such a great time in DC over Christmas that we are going back down today.  We’re taking the train together – so I will be sure to report on how that goes once we return!

I’ll try to post while I’m gone, but in case I don’t – have a great week everyone!

Yes, that’s right, FREE!  I’ve seen posts on Fort Greene Babies and other places about Infant CPR classes, but none of them have been Free.  A friend told me that at Brooklyn Hospital (121 Dekalb Avenue) they offer this class, and sure enough on their website is all the information:

Free Courses in Infant and child Resuscitation (CPR), Car Seat Safety, Choking. First Aid: Burns, Lacerations, Falls, and Poisonings. Every Thursday at 6:00 pm — Beginning February 2009.
