National CPR and AED Week - June 1 - 7, 2026

By Member Joyce Shry
June 1, 2026

National CPR and AED Week is a powerful reminder that lifesaving action begins with everyday people. The 2026 theme, “It Starts with You,” highlights the essential role each of us plays in responding when an emergency strikes. Whether it happens at home, at work, or in the community, knowing CPR and how to use an AED can make the difference between life and death. By taking a little time to get trained, you’re not just learning a skill—you’re becoming a crucial link in Frederick County’s chain of survival.

And if you feel inspired to make an even bigger impact, consider joining Frederick County Volunteer Fire and Rescue. As a volunteer, you’ll gain lifesaving training, support your neighbors when they need it most, and help build a safer, stronger community. It all starts with one person stepping forward. It starts with you.
