Next time you're catching a Rochester Red Wings game, you can catch a life-saving CPR training session at Innovative Field.
The HeartSaver Hub Mobile Kiosk offers a brief interactive training session, hands-on practice and a 30-second test. There is music to help the user maintain a continuous rhythm. The built-in, latex-free torso ensures proper hand placement, compression rate and depth, with real-time feedback.
The kiosk is located near the Red Wings team store and will be available from May 28 through June 2, and again from June 11-16.
“Learning CPR is an invaluable skill that can make a real difference in our community," said Naomi Silver, president, CEO and COO of the Red Wings, and URMC board member. "We are thrilled to partner with UR Medicine and the American Heart Association to bring this hands-only CPR training to our fans. Emergencies can happen anywhere and at any time, and by taking just a few minutes to learn these life-saving techniques, we can all be prepared to act — whether it’s at the ballpark or at home. We encourage everyone to take advantage of this opportunity while having fun at a ballgame and become a lifesaver."
The hands-only CPR training station is the first of its kind in New York and one of only four in the United States.
