Educational experience

You will touch each other – so make sure you are comfortable
You NEVER have to do anything you are uncomfortable with; you can
stop someone from doing something to you with our safety word:
emu

-
You will not touch anywhere near the hips or chest, front or back, on
any person
We will be practicing scenarios, and they may get intense; we will
take pauses, and you can take a personal pause if needed
This is NOT A CERTIFICATION – you are learning skills but will not
be certified in any way
Never step over a person; treat all people in the room with respect and
dignity

“A person who…provides
emergency first aid services…they
cannot be held liable for damages
that result from the person’s
negligence in acting or failing to act
while providing the services, unless
it is established that the damages
were caused by gross negligence of
the person.”
