TUV USA employees obtain CPR Certification

Contributed by: Jenifer Bartoszek

TUV USA recently welcomed William Devereaux of Technical Medical Training located in Burlington, Massachusetts to their Salem, New Hampshire office for CPR Training. Several employees participated in the Adult, Child and Infant CPR & DFIB training and are now CPR certified.

CPR (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is an emergency procedure that combines chest compressions often with artificial ventilation in an effort to manually preserve intact brain function until further measures are taken to restore spontaneous blood circulation and breathing in a person who is in cardiac arrest.

According to the American Heart Association, someone in the U.S. dies every 43 seconds from heart disease, stroke or another cardiovascular disease.

Medical emergencies can happen anywhere at any time. From heart attacks to seizures, help will quickly come from employees who have had CPR training and can provide temporary relief and help prevent any fatalities.

TUV USA is committed to making our workplace safe for our employees.
