'Super CPR Saturday,' Feb. 27 – FREE lifesaving classes

JOHNS CREEK, GA—In conjunction with American Heart Month, Johns Creek's "Super CPR Saturday" returns Feb. 27 with free lifesaving classes for residents and business owners in how to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation and use an automated external defibrillator.

The classes, part of the city's Heart Ready program, will be taught by Johns Creek paramedics at 10 a.m., noon, 2 p.m., and 4 p.m. in the Community Room at Johns Creek Fire Station 62, 10925 Rogers Circle, Johns Creek.

These non-certification classes (based on American Heart Association's "Family & Friends") are most appropriate for ages 10 and older. Reservations are preferred and can be made by calling 678-512-3221.

Johns Creek partners with the American Heart Association and Emory Johns Creek Hospital to support its ongoing Heart Ready Program, which has placed 48 automatic electronic defibrillators in public spaces and Johns Creek police vehicles, and trained over 400 people in bystander CPR and AED use since its 2008 inception.
