TAICHUNG, JEN-AI HOSPITAL - DALI

　　At the request of International Women's Association of Taichung (IWAT), Jen-Ai Hospital - Dali has arranged a special workshop for the members of IWAT, teaching them the basics of the essential life-saving skill of cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) on Wednesday, September 17 from 10:00am~12:00pm. IWAT members contacted Melody Hou, IWAT Tours / Workshops Coordinator, to reserve their space for this workshop. 21 participants from 11 different countries met in front of the Evergreen Laurel Hotel at 9:10am, where the Jen-Ai Hospital - Dali's shuttle bus took them to the hospital and sent them back to the hotel. The CPR class was taught by Dr. Chang, Cardiologist-in-Chief and certified CPR Instructor at Jen-Ai Hospital - Dali. There were a number of hospitals staffs on site who helped out with the CPR Workshop. At the start of the workshop, the IWAT members were given a short presentation about CPR and then demonstration using "Annie" was given. A coffee break was also arranged at the end of the workshop. All in all, the ladies seemed to have a good time and at the same time, received basic training needed for CPR.
