CPR and the First Aid Merit Badge


Recommended Posts

Do you really think all the First Aid MB's issued at Summer Camps are instructed by CPR-certified instructors?

Again, the scout is not getting qualified to perform CPR by getting the First Aid MB. The advisory in the MB pamphlet is informational, not a strict requirement for the MB.

At our summer camp, the health officer is a qualified CPR instructor. 

You are welcome to choose to ignore the MB pamphlet and the guide to advancement. I can only point out the proper information.

I would like to  point out that anyone who NEEDS, could possibly benefit from,  having CPR performed on their person, is PROBABLY NOT going to ask to see the possible performer's  CPR Training Certitficate.....
