Fearrington Homeowners Association (FHA): Learn Bystander CPR in February 2020 Organized by Fearrington Cares

Friday. February 07, 2020 and Saturday February 08, 2020 at 9:00 a.m. to 12:00 noon.
Thursday, February 06, 2020 and Wednesday, February 19, 2020 at 5:00 p.m. to 8:00 p.m. at The Gathering Place

When a person experiences cardiac arrest outside of a hospital, the minutes before the paramedics arrive can mean life or death. People who witness the event can help but bystander CPR is performed less than half the time. Impressively, bystander CPR can double the survival rates of those who have sudden cardiac arrest.

Fearrington Cares will be sponsoring four American Heart Association bystander CPR training classes in February 2020. Each class must have four to six Villagers.

Registration is required; please call the Fearrington Cares Center (919-542- 6877) for more information or to register for a class. The charge is $45 per person, payable at the class.

Fearrington Cares operates exclusively for charitable and educational purposes and in a manner consistent with Section 501(c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code.

FHA Heath, Safety & Security Mission

As stated in the Fearrington Homeowners Association (FHA) Articles of Incorporation, one of the important purposes of the FHA is to "provide for the health, safety and welfare" of the residents of Fearrington Village. As part of this important mission, and to comply with the Articles, the FHA works hard to develop and sustain policies, programs, and services that will help to keep village residents healthy and safe.

The FHA HSS Director oversees emergency preparedness, village road safety, and Community Watch information, sometimes working with ad hoc advisory committees.
At times in the past several years, over 35 residents have served in such advisory roles. Their work and support have been invaluable and very much appreciated.

In addition to its communication with Fearrington residents, the FHA HSS Director maintains collaborative relationships with the Chatham County Emergency Management Department and 911, Emergency Medical Services (FirstHealth/EMS), the Chatham County North Chatham Fire Department, the Chatham County Sheriff's Department, and traffic engineers at the North Carolina Department of Transportation (NCDOT, which is responsible for 54 state secondary roads in the village).
