Thankful Thursday!

Back in November (2018), we set up our certification schedule at the Y, simply meaning dates were put on the 2019 calendar for when we would be teaching CPR for the Professional Rescuer, First Aid and Emergency Oxygen Administration.

That means that since November of last year, Camp Streefland knew that their staff certifications would be on June 4.  However, their leadership failed to provide their staff e-mail addresses so we could send out the blended learning links until the Monday before Tuesday's class.  Their staff had less than twenty-four hours to complete six hours of on-line training.   

Naturally, that meant that not all of their staff were certified before summer started - not our fault.  In an effort to assist them with their stupidity, we scheduled a second certification class for tonight.  Three staff were signed up for Emergency Oxygen only; seven staff were signed up for CPRPR, First Aid and Emergency Oxygen.  Their links went out last week, giving them plenty of time to get them done.

At 3 p.m. today, one person had completed Oxygen and one person at completed the three in one class.  In order to run a class, we need a minimum of three people.  At 4 p.m. today, the classes (which were to start at 5 p.m.) were canceled.

Honestly, for that, I am most thankful!  I worked at the Y Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday evenings (can you say "short-staffed"?) as well as Thursday afternoon and i am ever so glad to be home tonight before I return to Sand Creek Friday and Saturday . . .
