Oh my goodness, Miss Johnson islike the most amazing event, not

I am Latrese Franklin, and Ido on LF Mobile Lifesaving Courses, which
provides basic to advance CPR training,whether it's individuals or groups. So most
people do not know that the firstweek of June is a ED and CPR

(03:21):
awareness week. So the first Saturdayof June. We celebrate that by to
the community in a very grand wayby celebrating all things CPR, but also
the community of Raleigh where I grewup with a wonderful health, wellness and
resource fair. So on Saturday,June third, from eleven to two,

(03:42):
we have an amazing array of vendors, screening and all everything in between.
But that's why we're essentially doing itto bring awareness to CPR, but also
to bring awareness to health, wealthand safety. So, Miss Franklin,
where will you be doing this communityhealth fare? We will be located on

(04:03):
Austin P. Thirty three eighty fourAustin P at the new Raleigh Spring Civic
Center where the Raleigh Spring Mall waslocated. So when when our listeners come
out, they will be able tosee what as far as wellnessed screenings and
doing those kinds of things. Ohyes, ma'am, they are going through

(04:25):
one see us from the street andhear us from the street and probably smell
also because we'll have food, butwe'll have of screenings as far as blood
pressures, will be doing your BMI'srelated to your weights. We will have
the University of Tennessee students coming outdoing dental screenings. We have all sorts
of clinics, doctor office representation,about four or five departments from the health

(04:49):
departments, and most importantly the departTennessee Department of Health Division of Health Disparities
and Eliminations. They are sponsoring ourevents, so they'll even be an attendance
coming in from Nashville. I lovethis because I always tell my listeners when
there is an opportunity for you toget your blood pressure checked or other wellness

(05:11):
screenings, and it's free, comeout and do that, right missus Franklin,
Oh yes, ma'am. It's soimportant. You know a lot of
vendors and allots events. And rightnow as I was looking at my confirmed
list, I have about twenty threeto twenty five vendors from Health, Wellness
and Safety brackets that will be inattendance that you may not otherwise be able

(05:33):
to get in to see these individualsas quickly. So it's a perfect opportunity
to come out, get your screeningis done. We're gonna have a grit
grind. Grannies are gonna be theredancing, We're gonna have youth villages,
therapeutic drummers, they're gonna be out, so we're we have a whole,
big, giant bundle of fun atthis event. And also you mentioned earlier,

(05:55):
Miss Franklin, that people will beable to learn how to do CPR.
Oh yes, ma'am. So,my goal for this event this year
is for us to at least clockthree thousand compressions, so we're going to
be doing CPR demonstrations, will haveCPR scavenger hunt, We're gonna have CPR
being goals. So at the veryleast, when individuals leave the healthfare,

(06:19):
they will know how to perform handsonly CPR, which is also just as
important as taking a real class whichmay cost you a couple hours a time.
Wow. And then you also saidthat also how to use AEED.
Oh yes, ma'am. So theautomated extern defibrillator in addition to CPR,

(06:39):
which is the compressions and the ventilationscan double the triple someone's chance of surviving.
So being able to use those machinesare so very important. From literally
just cutting it on to listening toit, you can save someone's life by
doing CPR as well as using thosedefibrillators I like it. I like what
you say. Take charge of yourhealth. So tell our listeners once again
