Note: Kare Bears will perform all routine and annual maintenance of the AED, including battery check, checking for outdated supplies, etc., and is responsible for ordering all AED supplies.
The PebbleCreek Senior Softball Association has individual players who have been trained and certified in the use of the AED. These individuals are certified as “first responders” and have voluntarily accepted the responsibility of assisting their teammates or spectators in case of a medical emergency.
All players are encouraged to participate in the AED/CPR training which takes approximately four (4) hours and the certification is valid for one (1) or two (2) years, depending on which agency administers the class. The goal of the PCSSA is to have a minimum of two (2) players from each team certified at all times.
Kare Bears schedules and coordinates the AED/CPR certification classes. A notice of upcoming classes will be sent to team managers who can notify players when to sign up.
Sign up sheets for the classes will be located across from the pro shop at the Eagles Nest Clubhouse. The fee for the certification class will be paid by the PCSSA.
A list of all current players and spouses who are AED/CPR certified will be posted on the bulletin board at the field.
