Creek County Literacy Program Announces Free CPR/AED Course

Nicole Michael, MPH, CHES, Public Health Educator with the Creek County Health Department, encourages area residents and families to attend a free Heartsaver® CPR/AED course.

This free Heartsaver® CPR/AED course will be held at the Library Annex, 15 North Poplar Street in Sapulpa on Friday, June 19th from 9 a.m.-1 p.m.

This free course is open to the public. Registration is limited to 10 participants. Attendees must be at least 16 years old and must register in advance. For more information and to register, please call

918-224-9647

"This course is not for healthcare providers; rather, it is for anyone with limited or no medical training who needs a course completion card in CPR and AED operation to
meet job, regulatory or other requirements," explained Michael. "This course is good for those who have never taken a CPR course and for those that are renewing their card."

Upon completion of this course, students receive a Heartsaver® CPR/AED Course Completion Card that is valid for two years. During the course, Michael will conduct video-based lessons and work with students to complete their CPR and AED skills practice and testing. Course completion cards will be available approximately 3-4 weeks after the completion of the course. Proof of attendance can be provided at the end of the class for those that need immediate proof.

“This course is typically never offered at no cost. We are very fortunate, through a grant, to be able to offer it at no charge,” added Melissa Struttman, Executive Director of Creek County Literacy Program.

This free Heartsaver® CPR/AED course is a health literacy outreach project of Creek County Literacy Program, the Oklahoma Department of Libraries, with funding provided by the Library Services and Technology Act (LSTA) and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
