Hello Skoshi
Our museum recently offered a full CPR- First Aid course to all our
staff and we will shortly purchase and install at least one AED on
campus. The arguments behind this idea have been supported by all staff
including upper management and the course was attended by a large
proportion of our staff.
We have considered the legal implications so upper management was very
explicit in highlighting the importance and applications of the Good
Samaritan Laws in California.

Hello,
We are in the process of updating our employee handbook and wanted to
get a
sense of what other institutions do with regard to CPR and First Aid
training and policies around administering CPR and First Aid to guests
and
legal implications.  Any information you have would be helpful.

Thanks in advance!
