Heart Safe Community

Steve Stegeman, a retired paramedic with over 40 years experience, will introduce Holland City’s new Heart Safe Community Initiative, sponsored by the Holland Fire Department. Through the Citizen CPR Foundation, this program promotes training and the delivery of lay person CPR for Sudden Cardiac Arrest. The presentation will include a demonstration of compression only cardio pulmonary resuscitation (CoCPR) and the use of an automated external defibrillator. Steve will be accompanied by a member of the committee, Jay Peters, who has used this training to assist in saving his friend’s life.
