We’re all over social media, here at ProCPR. In fact, we’ve got many twitter accounts that you can follow, for updates on each of our current programs. We’d also like to invite you, if you haven’t already, to become a fan on Facebook. It’s a growing community of all of you that loves keeping your skills fresh with our training videos, and have a great time with the profession of saving lives. We’ve also got a youtube channel for you to subscribe to. We’re updating it regularly with new training videos and other fun videos that we come up with to promote life-saving skills.
Beyond a shadow of a doubt, the number one question that I get when I tell people what I do for a living is that. How can you get CPR Certified Online? How do you do compressions on a computer? Is that for real? By now, I’ve heard the same question about a thousand times. But you know what? It doesn’t bother me. It means that people are generally going to be curious about how it works, and they want to learn. It’s intriguing, like a great mystery that they want to know the answer to. It is great to be able to explain the process to them, and to have an answer for every follow up question.
We’ve been spending some time coming up with a new place for Registered Nurses to hang out. We’ve been building a social network, called Nurse’s Cafe, for some time now, and are getting close with that. But right now we have something new to introduce. We call it “RN Stories.”
RN Stories is a place where you can share stories from work. Things that touched your heart, funny stories, and perhaps what got you into nursing in the first place.
We’re very excited for the RN community to get involved and have fun with it. We’re really curious to see how inspirational the site becomes to people in the nursing field.
To use it, all you need is a facebook account, as it uses Facebook Connect alone to sign in and start writing.
You may have noticed that we’ve got another new blog for you to read. For about two years now, I’ve been working hard trying to get more people at our company blogging the things that you want to know about. Roy blogged a few times, but in the end, his best method of communication is via video. We’ve decided to create a blog for his videos specifically, which you can find at RoyOnRescue.com
Here’s the introduction video, but there are a lot more videos with great topics. You can also contact him with questions that you’d like him to answer in future videos!
A few years ago we recorded some snow safety training videos. At the time, the videos were huge, and are still huge even by today’s standards. Posting them to YouTube has helped, though. For those that are interested, the reason they are so big is the huge snowflakes. They required the video to create a new keyframe for every frame, resulting in a video that is at least twice the size that it could have been. But that’s beside the point.
The videos cover topics such as hypothermia and frostbite. We hope that you enjoy them!
Family physician and cholesterol expert Michael Cobble, M.D., has some simple resolutions and fun advice for staying heart healthy in the new year. Cobble is a board-certified clinical lipidologist (NLA), certified hypertension specialist (ASH), medical director of the private practice Canyons Medical Center in Sandy, Utah, and Chief Medical Officer at Atherotech, Inc., developer of the VAP Cholesterol Test.
Health care workers who require CPR certification to perform their jobs can get a nationally recognized certificate from ProCPR.org for $17.50 if they take the online course and purchase their certificate before the end of the year. In response to difficult economic conditions, ProCPR is reducing the price of its accredited online CPR training and certification program from $29.95 to $17.50.
If you’ve been following the blog, you’d know that we seemed to disappear from updates for a few months. We’ve been really busy with some new developments since late August that we’re hoping to launch in the near future. In the meantime, if you didn’t notice the changes to ProCPR, ProFirstAid or ProBloodborne, we’ve made some changes.
We’ve been working on a new way to get weekly training videos, and have just released a gadget that you can add to your iGoogle Homepage. It is updated every week with a different CPR training video so that you can keep your skills up to date throughout the year and between certifications. We’re really excited to finally be able to bring it to you.
Celebrate National CPR/AED Awareness Week by spreading the word about ProCPR.org and ProFirstAid.com to a friend or family member that you think would benefit from the training videos that we offer absolutely free of charge on our websites. In December 2007, Congress passed a bill which designated the first week of June as National Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Awareness Week.
