Save a Life Training (S.A.L.T.)
Save a life training combines ‘high quality’ CPR and ‘Stop the Bleed’ training to assist faculty, staff, students and youth program directors in feeling comfortable doing life saving techniques in the event a medical or traumatic emergency occurs on campus or during a youth program. This class is taught every third Friday of the month beginning at 9:00am. It lasts approximately 2 hours.
Youth Program Directors and staff designated with medication management responsibilities are strongly encouraged to participate in a training session.
