“Call and Pump” Web-based Training Program Now Available


The Open ISES Project (http://openises.sourceforge.net) is very proud to
announce its latest offering. “Call and Pump” is a web-based training
program for the general population
(http://emstraining.eduforge.org/medical/public_trng.html) and is the
first offering in the Open ISES Project's public training section. As
the focus of citizen CPR turns more towards compression only CPR, this
training program can help meet that need. This training project comes
from our friends with the Call and Pump project
(http://www.callandpump.org) in Wisconsin.


The training program uses a series of slides to explain the concept
behind Call and Pump and why the compression only form of CPR is
effective. It also includes two videos embedded into the training
program. This is a professionally created training program that can be
used as a stand-alone program or as part of a Learning Content
Management System such as Moodle (http://moodle.org). Like all of our
offerings, this training program is released as a free and open source
project.


We want to invite you to stop by the Open ISES Project and view our
other offerings. We have several training projects directed towards both
the Advanced Life Support and Basic Life Support provider
(http://emstraining.eduforge.org/medical/index.html). In addition we
invite you to review our open source, web-based Computer Aided Dispatch
program called Tickets (http://openises.sourceforge.net/tickets01.html).


Like any open source project, we are always looking for individuals to
join our community. If you are a developer looking for a worthy project,
we believe that there is none better than the Open ISES Project. If you
are an emergency service provider, who wants to work with other software
developers, we can use your help. If you are an instructor and are
willing to create training programs that can be used to help meet the
needs of your community or your fellow providers, we believe that the
Open ISES Project is the place to be. To find out more, please visit our
