At ProTrainings, we enjoy getting to know our corporate partners so that we can help them choose the right training for their staff and develop an implementation mode that works best for their needs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Through getting to know these amazing companies, we\u2019ve also come to admire many for their values and their follow-through. <strong>One of our partners is a large national fitness franchise and they have proven themselves to be an excellent example of one such company that practices what they preach.&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To their guests, their gyms are inclusive spaces where anyone at any fitness level can come in and work out. As our partner, this company is setting a new standard for CPR training across the board. Here\u2019s how you can, too!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">The Fitness Franchise\u2019s Rescue-Enabling Culture<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Our partner \u2013 who humbly prefers to remain anonymous \u2013 is not only an authority on creating a judgment-free zone for their customers to work towards personal fitness \u2014 they also succeed in training staff members to be ready to step up to save a life in an emergency.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This fitness giant requires all staff trainers to be CPR certified. With thousands of branches and an even higher number of staff members operating under widely diverse schedules, they needed CPR training that could be tailored to best prepare each staff member individually.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This training proved invaluable in March of 2019 when <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/boston\/news\/planet-fitness-man-saved-wilmington-cpr\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">a gym-goer in Wilmington, Massachusetts<\/a> suddenly collapsed and was barely breathing. A staff member was able to retrieve the defibrillator and provide first aid until emergency services could arrive on scene and transport the man to the hospital.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The first responders who arrived on the scene credit the quick actions of the gym employee in helping to provide first aid when minutes mattered most.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As a gym owner, you might be wondering how often this happens. While many think that having AEDs publicly available is enough to safeguard against such events, unfortunately that\u2019s just not the case. Cardiac arrest does not discriminate. It can happen to any person, at any age, at any time.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Cardiac Arrest Explained&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>While heart attacks are caused by a blockage obstructing one or more of the coronary arteries, cardiac arrest is an electrical problem. In cardiac arrest, the heartbeat goes haywire, speeding up or slowing down or stopping entirely (also known as <em>arresting<\/em>.)&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Cardiac arrest is also deadly. Without immediate medical intervention in the form of CPR and AED usage, the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.nhlbi.nih.gov\/health\/cardiac-arrest\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">survival rate for out-of-hospital cardiac arrest<\/a> is less than 1 in 10. Though there are risk factors that contribute to cardiac arrest, over half of cardiac arrest victims never knew they had a heart problem.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks.jpg\" rel=\"lightbox[12814]\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"810\" data-attachment-id=\"12816\" data-permalink=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/creating-more-rescuers-within-your-ranks\/creating-more-rescuers-within-your-ranks\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks.jpg\" data-orig-size=\"1200,949\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks\" data-image-description=\"\" data-image-caption=\"\" data-large-file=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-1024x810.jpg\" src=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-1024x810.jpg\" alt=\"ProTrainings Leading the Pack: Creating More Rescuers Within Your Ranks\" class=\"wp-image-12816\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-1024x810.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-300x237.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-768x607.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks-100x79.jpg 100w, https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/05\/Creating-More-Rescuers-Within-Your-Ranks.jpg 1200w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>That includes cardiac arrest in young athletes. Stanford Medicine reports that 1 in 80,000 young athletes die of cardiac arrest each year, with cardiac arrest in youth sports <a href=\"https:\/\/healthier.stanfordchildrens.org\/en\/teen-basketball-player-saved-by-cpr-highlights-risk-of-cardiac-arrest-in-sports\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">occurring once every five days<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Disconcerting as those statistics may seem, CPR training can and does save the lives of cardiac arrest victims. A woman working out at a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/minnesota\/news\/womans-life-saved-by-fellow-gym-member-during-cardiac-arrest-in-south-metro\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Life Time Fitness center in Minnesota<\/a> collapsed, but was quickly revived by CPR-certified staff who confidently and correctly used the gym\u2019s AED.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The best way to combat the deadly unpredictability of cardiac arrest is through education and intervention. If your staff feels confident and capable \u2013&nbsp;and if they\u2019re equipped with the tools they need, like AEDs \u2013 they can save lives.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Keeping Your Community Safe<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>As a business owner, you are a gatekeeper of your community. Your establishment serves purposes beyond health and fitness. It is a place where people gather and form connections to enrich their lives while strengthening their bodies.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Therefore, it can be said that your responsibility to your community extends past your doors. When you invest time and resources into training your staff, there is a ripple effect of safety. The training they have goes where they go, making it possible for them to step in and save a life anytime, anywhere.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you make your patrons aware that your staff is CPR certified, it demonstrates a commitment to your community and a standard of quality that boosts your reputation. You can even choose to involve your community in <a href=\"https:\/\/www.protrainings.com\/courses\/cpr-first-aid\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">CPR training<\/a> efforts, sharing knowledge and information that may empower others to seek CPR certification as well.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Having your staff obtain CPR certification doesn\u2019t just make your gym safer \u2014 it makes your community safer, too.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Supporting Your Staff&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>No matter the industry, when your staff is trained and prepared, not only can they save a life in an emergency, they also know that you\u2019re investing in their skills and safety.<br>A company like this one is a great example of providing quality training while managing costs and simplifying administrative headaches.
