building event for offices and groups. “We believe that everyone should know CPR,” said Tyson. “Our military and first responder background allows us to give you a different perspective and it allows us to show you that anyone can do CPR. You don’t have to be a nurse or doctor, you just have to be willing to learn the skills so that you are better prepared and confident to act if/when you are presented with a situation.” Tyson also teaches classes to teenagers and believes that even children can be exposed to CPR training. “The wonderful thing about CPR is that there is no minimum age to learn it,” she said. “It is based on competency and each student will need to perform the skills appropriately to obtain a certification.” During a recent class for Osprey Observer team members, Tyson told attendees that four out of five cardiac arrests happen in the home.
