A $1,000 “doll” donated to
the North Shore Family
YMCA by the West Van-
couver Kiwanis Club could
help save the lives of many
future heart attack victims.

The doll, a special lifesize
replica of. a human body, is
the Kiwanis’ contribution to
the “Y’s’ recently launched
Cardiac Pulmonary
Resuscitation (CPR). project
— now being organized at
West Van's’ Inglewood
Centre. .

Time is the crucial factor
when dealing with a. heart
attack..It's estimated that 80
per cent of all heart attack
victims could be saved if
treatment was available
within two minutes.

Meanwhile, it normally

ambulance a minimum of
four minutes upward to
reach a victim.

The answer is to train as
many ordinary citizens as
possible in CPR so that they

_ are equipped to deal with a

heart attack case instantly,
right on the spot. And it can
be done. -

The model for North
America is King County,
Washington, where more
than 280,000. citizens have

‘now received CPR training

through schools and com-
munity organizations. King
County is now the safest
place on the continent ‘to
have a heart attack.

’ The North Shore ‘Y’ aims
to duplicate that feat.

With the help. of volun-
teers and donations of

essential equipment such as
the Kiwanis’ doll it has set
itself a 1981 goal of 1,000-
1,200 local citizens trained in

CPR and ready to start 7

reviving any heart attack
victim without a moment’ Ss
delay.

The course takes a total of
only four hours. In sub-
sequent years the “Y’ plans to
greatly increase the number

of CPR-trained people on ~-

the North Shore as more
instructors become
available.

February is Heart Month,
a particularly appropriate
month to start participating.

project call T. Hirschfeld at
