Training Time at The Hub August 11, 2024

IAHD staff has been renewing their certifications in first aid/CPR training sessions at the DeVito Conference Center and the newly renovated Bainbridge training hub. IAHD purchased new CPR mannequins that are portable and lightweight to use for practice. Since late June, there have been 14 first aid/CPR trainings, with about 110 people completing the course.

Feedback has been very positive on these sessions led by Erin Hopkins, IAHD’s Director of Workforce Development and Training, as staff had found it to be helpful, easy to understand, and relevant to their positions here at IAHD. Kudos to Erin!

You can see some of our staff in action in the videos from one of the training classes below!
