CPR & First Aid

An athletic trainer is most directly responsible for all phases of healthcare in an athletic environment, including preventing injuries from occurring, providing initial first aid and injury management, evaluating injuries, and designing and supervising a timely effective program of rehabilitation that can facilitate the safe and expeditious return of an athlete to activity.

The Recreation and Wellness Center now offers American Red Cross CPR and First Aid Classes to students for $5.00. To signup, go to the administrative offices.

Thor Guard

Thor Guard Lightning Prediction System

The RWC has installed a lightning prediction system called Thor Guard. The system, when lightning is predicted, activates a series of horns and strobe lights to warn those working outside to seek shelter immediately. The system will be used for the RWC aquatic facilities (lap and leisure pools), tennis courts, volleyball courts, recreational fields, and the Challenge Course. The staff have been given instruction on the system for when to instruct users to evacuate the areas and when the areas are safe.

One long horn blast along with a continuous flashing strobe light will activate when the system predicts lightning.

Three, five second horn blasts are activated when the areas are safe.

The system is active 7 Days a week from 10:00am to 12:00am
