During the two-day camp to be held August 3 and 4 at Oswego Hospital, the students will be taught how to perform Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation.

Following the camp, the students will be able to teach CPR themselves to their family and friends using the kits that they will take home.

Supporting the purchase of the kits were Oswego Health Emergency Department Physician Michael Boyle, MD, and Menter Ambulance Services.

The camp is an opportunity for students who are entering the eighth and ninth grades to learn about careers in healthcare from medical professionals who work in the field.
