News » Lawmaker wants to mandate basic CPR lesson
Mar. 11, 2010 A state lawmaker wants to make sure teens know CPR.
Rep. Ted Zigmunt is pushing a proposal that would force school districts to teach CPR to high school students, and show them how to use a defribrillator.
The Francis Creek Democrat says it would be up to administrators in each school district to decide how in-depth they want to get. Zigmunt says they would meet the standards of the bill by having local firefighters or EMTs come to school once a year to teach a two-hour class.
An assembly committee is considering the proposal. |
