Heart Safe Initiative

The Heartsafe Initiative is a cooperative effort among the Village of Rhinebeck, Town of Rhinebeck, Rhinebeck Central School District, Rhinebeck Chamber of Commerce and community partners to make Rhinebeck Heart Safe. The idea is, that through awareness and education, people will be trained in CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and AED (automatic external defribrillator) operation and that through the generosity of individuals and businesses AED'S will be purchased and placed in locations with trained people on site.

For information on the Heart Safe mission including low cost CPR/AED training contact The Heart Safe Club at heartsafeclub@frontiernet.net or visit the Web site at www.maggieomalley.org.
