Hi all. I'm looking for a good, up-to-date CPR video to show our new parents. The one we have is from 1990 and very dated. I can't seem to find anything online that is appropriate.

What do you guys use in your hospital?

:)

Ours disappeared a long time ago. Nowadays, we refer them to infant/child community CRP classes. There is only so much time, when they are only with us 24 hours. Also, our Childbirth instructor has a CRP offering during her pre-birth classes.

Ah. The problem here is, most parents that we see are NOT going to take a class, and I'd like to at least be able to show them "what to do in case". I think my NM might have found something, but suggestions are still very welcome!

hmmm can you check the American Heart Assoc. site??? Maybe they have one for you....or Red Cross?

Have checked both sites, and can't find much for patient education. Maybe I'll have to email them.

Maybe try the American Academy of Pediatrics website?
