The Wauseon track team received AED instruction following their sports pictures on Wednesday, March 22nd.

The team braved the cold rainy weather and went outside where they received instruction from Lt. Schaffner from the Wauseon Fire Department.

Lt. Shaffner grabbed an AED that was located outside by the teams track and showed them what they can expect if they were to ever have to use it.

The pack was opened and each of the items inside were shown to the students. Coach Joe Allen also spoke to the students about the importance of knowing how to use the device and that they could be the ones to save a life.

Allen stated that an incident had taken place years prior where a person went down. He explained that it was a real situation for a few moments because at first, they had not felt a pulse.

A student also pointed out that it is important to dry off the patient first if they are wet.

Following the discussion of what to do with the AED, a brief overview was given about how CPR is conducted as well.
