Apprentice CPR
Among the things third year apprentice
Jeffrey Lyons learned at the SMWIA Local 19 Training Center was how to
administer Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation, more commonly referred to as
CPR. As it turns out, it is a good thing he did. On the morning of Tuesday,
August 2nd, while at work for Environmental Air Services, Inc., in Clifton
Heights, co-worker Tim Kollhoff became ill and eventually was unconscious
on the floor of the shop. While waiting for the Emergency Medical Technicians
to arrive, Jeffrey was able to remain calm, think clearly, and put the
CPR training he had received into practice. The twenty-seven year
old Jeffrey, with the help of Jake Kollhoff, Tim’s brother, worked on Tim
until the Emergency Medical Technicians arrived. Coworkers, who were present,
at the time, remarked how calm and collected Mr. Lyons remained as he took
control of the situation and showed no sign of panic. Had it not been for
Jeffrey’s training and quick thinking, things could have turned out differently.

As a direct result of our green

at Villanova University will be a case study for other customers to use
as part of their safety and energy efficiency improvements.
