🛢️ First Aid & CPR Training For The Arena 🛢️
What Is This? 🤨
Rodeo environments pose unique medical challenges due to the involvement of livestock, high-impact events, and large crowds. Quick and knowledgeable first response can make the difference between life and death. This training will provide show personnel, with the skills to respond effectively to cardiac, traumatic, and environmental emergencies in the arena setting — ensuring a safer environment for participants, animals, and spectators while awaiting the arrival of advanced medical help.
Who Should Attend This? 🤔
Frequent barrel racers or other rodeo contestants such as bull riders, ropers, etc. Arena personnel such as the gate person, barrel setters, announcers. (ANYONE AND EVERYONE.)
What Will I Learn? 🤓
Participants will learn how to perform high-quality adult CPR and use an AED confidently. Control life-threatening bleeding with direct pressure, wound packing, and tourniquets. Assess scenes for safety around animals and moving equipment. Coordinate communication and teamwork during an emergency until EMS arrives.
How Long Does This Take? 🥱
A few hours - which is worth being able to save a life!
Where Does This Occur? 🧐
Your arena! We come to you. Just provide the seating and we’ll handle the rest.
How Soon Can We Schedule? 😊
The answer is yes! We understand life is hectic. Most classes are M-F normal business hours but not us! We can do mornings, afternoons, and evenings almost 7 days a week.
📌 A shoutout goes to Circle R Arena for their post looking for donations for AED and striking a whole new-ish idea and for Alan allowing Colten and Haley to run with it.
