MIKEY Trainer in the Right Place at the Right Time to Save a Life

One of our good friends and CPR/AED advocate David Goodman just happened to be in the right place at the right time to help save a life.

Last December, David was driving home when he saw a crowd of people on the sidewalk hovering over a fallen man. He immediately jumped out of his car and took over. He checked the vital signs on the victim of sudden cardiac arrest and began CPR. He continued until Toronto Fire Services arrived and provided an AED for defibrillation.

David is the founder and CEO of Heaven Can Wait Emergency First Aid Training. Heaven Can Wait works to educate and empower the public through the teachings of lifesaving First Aid and CPR skills. David’s organization is one of the associations we work with to provide training on CPR and AED through The Mikey Network.

It wasn’t until weeks after the event that David heard from the victim’s family he had made a full recovery, and that they wanted to meet him. You can read the full story on The Toronto Star: Heaven Can Wait.

David is an amazing man, and now a life-saving hero. We are so proud to be associated with him and his organization.
