Why Take CPR/AED Training?

Every second counts in a cardiac emergency—and immediate CPR can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival. By learning how to perform CPR and use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), you become empowered to take action when it matters most, whether at home, at work, or in public.

This hands-on course will cover:

Recognizing cardiac arrest and responding quickly

Performing high-quality chest compressions

Using an AED safely and effectively

Helping adults, children, and infants in emergency situations

Whether you're a parent, teacher, coach, or simply someone who wants to be prepared, CPR/AED training is an invaluable skill that anyone can learn—and everyone should.

Let’s build a safer, stronger Haworth community together.

Warm regards,
Damien Davis
Haworth Board of Health

Reset, Prepare, and Relax
Box Breathing is a simple, physiologically based relaxation technique that helps calm the nervous system and improve focus. Controlled breathing techniques have existed for thousands of years and Box Breathing has been popularized in modern settings through its use by Navy SEALs and other high-performance professionals.
Box breathing can help you reach a state of calm and mental clarity. It can also be useful when preparing for sleep or before a stressful situation such as taking an exam, speaking in public, having a difficult conversation, or maintaining composure under pressure.
How to Practice Box Breathing
1. Inhale slowly through your nose for 4 seconds, allowing your abdomen to expand.
2. Hold your breath for 4 seconds.
3. Exhale slowly through your nose or mouth for 4 seconds.
4. Hold again for 4 seconds before beginning the next breath.
Repeat this cycle 4 times or until you begin to feel calmer.
Some people find it helpful to visualize the four sides of a square or box, moving from one corner to the next as they breathe.
