Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, USA – September 19, 2013 – It was standing room only in the offices of Anago of Western PA during the Monthly Franchise Owner’s Meeting for September 2013. This month’s meeting offered franchisees the opportunity to learn important live-saving skills. As an added bonus, attendees received their first aid and CPR certification.

Anago of Western PA invited special guest Denis Valentine, Director of SouthBridge Emergency Medical Services (EMS), to lead the meeting. SouthBridge is a local EMS service for the South Fayette Township and Bridgeville Areas. Mr. Valentine conducted a Heartsaver® First Aid course. Heartsaver® First Aid is a course that teaches the critical skills needed to respond to and manage an emergency until EMS arrives. In addition, Mr. Valentine demonstrated how to perform CPR, and all owners in attendance received both their first aid and CPR certification at the conclusion of the meeting.

“I could not have been more pleased with today’s turnout,” stated Vice President of Anago of Western PA Bill Ross. “It was great to see how much interest our Franchise Owners had in learning these important life-saving skills. Because so many franchisees work late at night in empty office buildings, knowing these first aid and CPR techniques could be a matter of life or death.”
