programs or providers. The National Registry (NREMT) accepts continuing education that has received official approval
through your state EMS office and / or through CECBEMS. Most states, including Tennessee, accept continuing education
that has received official approval through CECBEMS. State license or certification renewal questions should be

U.S. Congress Passes
National CPR/AED Awareness Week
Thanks to the passage of a new resolution in Congress, the nation will be honoring National
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillator (AED) Awareness Week the first week of June, 2008!
Nearly 2,000 messages were sent by AHA Advocacy's You're
the Cure advocates in support of this bill, which will further educate Americans about the necessity of CPR and AEDs and to
encourage states, cities, and towns to establish well-organized programs that provide CPR and AED training and increase public
access to AEDs. The resolution, which was introduced by Representatives Randy Kuhl (R-NY) and Dan Boren (D-OK) and Senators
Susan Collins (R-ME) and Russ Feingold (D-WI), passed by unanimous consent before the end of the Congressional session in
December.
National CPR and AED Awareness Week will help shine a light
on sudden cardiac arrest (SCA). At least 164,000 Americans experience SCA outside of a hospital each year and more than
95 percent of them die before reaching the hospital. But the good news is that quick application of proper CPR and defibrillation
can make a difference and save lives. In cities where defibrillation is provided within five to seven minutes, the survival
rate from sudden cardiac arrest is as high as 49 percent.
