KCMN June 2026 | CPR Training & Certification

KCMN brought manufacturers together on the morning of June 9 for a CPR Certification Course in collaboration with Johnson County Community College and Chiefs CPR.

The training opened with a focus on personal safety in emergency situations, including the proper use of gloves. From there, attendees moved into basic first aid fundamentals: assessing the scene, applying tourniquets, documentation, and more. Hands-on training followed for choking emergencies and administering CPR.

To put the skills into practice, attendees broke into teams of three and role-played the recommended steps for encountering an unconscious person:

• Ensure scene safety
• Tap the person to check for consciousness
• Assess breathing and pulse
• Call 911
• Begin chest compressions

Rachel Keck, Network Manager, closed out the morning with announcements about upcoming KCMN events and a giveaway.

Thank you to Johnson County Community College and Chiefs CPR for equipping our network with skills that can make a real difference when it counts.
