Local Woman Offers Training in Lifesaving Skills

Those seeking training in CPR and first aid have a new place to go, and they may not even have to leave their home or office. 

Nicole Moore is spreading the word about her new business, Saving Moore Lives, which offers special training for individuals and businesses. Soon, she will be offering classes at the West County Area Library and will also travel throughout the area to perform trainings on site.  

Moore lives in Laurel and works as a pediatric referral coordinator at Johns Hopkins Community Physicians in Odenton. Through the American Heart Association, she's received certification to provide training in several medical areas, including CPR, First Aid and the use of defibrillators. 

"A lot of people in this area could use these services," Moore said. "Having someone in the area to offer training would be a great asset to have."

The trainings can be geared toward individuals or groups, including those in the health care field. Classes can last anywhere from two to four hours, depending on the service. Classes cost between $70 and $80.

Currently, she is renting space at the Fitness Ease Center in Gambrills, but eventually hopes to open her own office. However, Moore said she will travel anywhere to hold a class, including offices and individual homes. 

Moore expects to begin offering classes for free at the West County Area Library in August and in the fall. She also hopes to expand to other sites in the area. The library classes are offered free of charge, but do not result in full certification at the end.
