Mobile Classroom for CPR Training
Donation protected
My name is Jerry Sienty, I am 67 years old, and don't have the luxury of time to achieve my goal. I had polio and cancer .... I have never used this as an excuse or a reason for anything, but in this case it's a motivating factor which adds to my requesting a helping hand.
I had polio at a very early age, my father taught me to overcome any adversities and I have always done my best to live up to that, I worked hard all my life and raised two wonderful children.
In 2005 my life was turned upside down when I was diagnosed with Bladder Cancer. I have had many surgeries, chemo and many procedures since then.
I have experienced the pain, anguish and depression that is associated with cancer and I want people to be aware of how fragile life can be and to give them the tools to help keep someone alive at least until more advanced help arrives.
In the case of 'Sudden Cardiac Arrest' and other life threatening situations, If it was a loved one, "would you know what to do"?
I have been a certified NYS EMT (Emergency Medical Technician) since 1971, I am a certified AHA (American Heart Association) BLS (Basic Life Support) Instructor and have been teaching CPR and other life saving techniques for almost four years. I have taught hundreds of students in that time
Because I was in and out of the hospital for periods of time, my business, CNT Rescue Training, had a 'roller coaster ride' effect and my overhead at the end of each month became a burden more often than not. So I recently gave up my lease at the place I had for three years, to step back and assess the situation.
I have recently enjoyed the holidays with my family and they encouraged me to go ahead with my innovative idea.
Since my last kidney was removed in 2013, I have been doing 'home dialysis', something that I recommend to anyone who needs dialysis, and I am looking forward to receiving a kidney transplant in the upcoming year or two.
This was a good, but exhausting fight, and I am now cancer free, I thank God that he allowed me to persevere. I am getting strong and feeling healthy and I need to get back to work.
I consider myself to be a very motivated and informative instructor and I love what I do.
My dream right now is to purchase a small RV and use that as a 'mobile class room', going to different neighborhoods to teach the different courses associated with CPR and First Aid. An innovative business that would be a dream come true.
There are many people that need to be certified in CPR, from professional healthcare providers to babysitters.
I intend to make a difference by bringing the classroom to the people and to introduce as many people as possible to what I strongly believe;
"Save a Life, Learn CPR" ....... with your help, I will achieve my goal, thank you in advance,
