Indore: IMA Provides CPR Training To Lady Teachers 

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Indian Medical Association-Indore branch organised a CPR training session for lady teachers of National Public School on Saturday. They received scientific as well as mannequin training in CPR during the session.

The objective of the programme was to provide training to the teachers and to train the maximum number of people in CPR technique so that they are in a position to give CPR in case of emergency.

President of the Indian Medical Association, Dr Anil Bhadoria said that keeping in view the moral responsibility of this organisation of doctors towards the health of the citizens of the city, these sessions will be organised regularly.

He said that CPR training will be available to various societies, social group clubs, residential societies, government servants, gym trainers, domestic helpers, drivers, watchmen, etc at the IMA building.
