Training Policy for CPR and AED
All current and future employees of the City of Tybee Island will be trained in the
proper performance of Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) to include Airway
Obstruction and the proper usage of the Automatic External Defibrillator (AED).
The guideline set by the American Heart Association is for renewed training every
two years. The city will provide CPR Training annually for all employees to begin
in 2014 to facilitate renewals and to provide training opportunities for new
employees.
A copy of the CPR certificate of completion will be placed in the employee
personnel file. Employees that desire to obtain this training on their own will be
required to provide a certificate of completion.
This policy is for training purposes only. The City of Tybee Island has no policy
related to the use of said training in the context of an emergency. Each employee,
other than those employees who are required to render aid or care in emergency
situations, has the right to act at his or her own discretion in deciding to render aid
or care, or not, during an emergency. This training shall in no way place an
employee, other than those employees who are required to render aid or care in
emergency situations, to render aid or care, either while performing duties for the
City of Tybee Island or otherwise.
