Help save a life! Free community CPR workshops this weekend

YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA) - Learn to save a life! Exceptional Community Hospital is hosting free CPR workshops this Saturday, December 13.

These monthly sessions allow locals who are uncertified to practice CPR for adults, children, and infants. The hospital says this helps the community stay prepared to respond to emergency situations.

"I think it's important for everybody to have that basic knowledge of knowing how to get hands on and helping somebody when they're down," said Exceptional Community Hospital nurse EmmJay Delgadillo.

“Knowledge is key, and the more we know, the more you're able to help and give back to your community. And you never know- you just never know when you're going to need to be able to save someone's life," said Exceptional Community Hospital community liaison Lisa Brazeel.

Exceptional Community Hospital is collaborating with the City of Yuma and the Greater Yuma Water Alliance to put on the workshops. Saturday's class is at the Yuma Police Department community room from 10:00 a.m. to noon.
