Ready to Respond: Hands - On CPR Training in Action Contributed by: Jason Tibbrine

In July, team members from across the department gathered for hands - on CPR training, and they didn ’ t miss a beat. With manikins lined up, this group practiced life - saving compressions and emergency response skills in a focused, realistic training session. Whether in the field or the office, knowing how to respond in a medical emergency can make a crucial difference, and this team showed up ready to learn.

Why does it matter? Medical emergencies can happen any where, on the job site, in the shop, or even at home. Performing CPR immediately can significantly increase a person ’ s chances of survival, especially in those critical first few minutes before emergency responders arrive.

What they learned: • Effective chest compression techniques • How to use an AED (automated external defibrillator) • Spotting the signs of cardiac arrest • Staying calm and acting until help arrives

Training like this strengthens more than just our safety skills — it builds confidence, sharpens focus, and reinforces the culture of care that runs through everything we do.

Preparedness starts with people who care — and this group proved it. Thanks to everyone who showed up and took this training to heart.
