In the past year, the Lifeline program of the American Red Cross of Greater Los Angeles has helped over 1,400 seniors and at-risk individuals remain independents in their own home. In this time, the Lifeline program has responded to over 1,000 help calls. The quick assistance that many have received is due in large part to your efforts. We would like to take an opportunity to thank you for referring your patients and clients to the Red Cross Lifeline program.
During the Open House, you can take part in the Continued Education Unit (CEU) presentation and learn more about Red Cross programs.
Whether you’re interested in receiving access to the CEU, getting information on getting CPR certified, finding more care giving resources for your clients, or looking to see how your organization can work with the Red Cross in its effort to support the needs of the greater community, we look forward to seeing you there. Space is limited so reserve your spot today!
