AED is in service

Our new AED (automated electric defibrillator) is mounted in the clubhouse near the pool table and is in service... Several people in the park have been RED CROSS trained in its use including most of the CERT team and the Oregon State Police Volunteers and the Newport Police Volunteers.

CPR and AED classes will be offered to the general park residents sometime in April. The course will be taught by a certified Red Cross Instructor and Oregon State Police Officer, Carla Urbegeit.

To get the community use to the machine a CERT team member will be showing a 10 minute video on the machine from its manufacturer ZOLL at the clubhouse Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday between 11:00am and 1:00 Pm... Coming soon!
