(PRWEB) July 12, 2005



The American Red Cross announces the launch of a new CPR Station enabling New York businesses to be compliant with state regulations mandating resuscitation equipment in all patron-accessible areas.



Under NYCRR Title 10, Part 801, Availability of Resuscitation Equipment in Certain Public Places, all New York State businesses that have patron-accessible areas are required to have specific resuscitation equipment readily available. Businesses affected by this regulation include but are not limited to bars, service counters, host/hostess stations, registration desks and concession stands, health clubs, theaters, concert halls, auditoriums, martial arts studios, health spas and studios, gymnasiums, medical, dental and veterinary practices and all manner of restaurants.



With a price of only $24.95, the American Red Cross CPR Station helps these and all patron-accessible businesses to be compliant with Part 801 regulations quickly and affordably.



Developed by leading first aid manufacturer First Aid Only in Vancouver, Washington, the American Red Cross CPR Station contains the products and information specified in Part 801 including four resuscitation face shields that can be used with both adults and children, gloves, sanitary wipes and a disposable bag, clearly marked instructions and basic CPR instructions in English and Spanish. The ARC CPR Station is organized, easy to display and mount, and features the distinctive Red Cross logo as a sign of reassurance to patrons and employees alike.



“The Part 801 regulations have a significant impact on virtually every consumer business in New York State,” said Jerilyn Hickey, Director of Business Development for the American Red Cross Greater Buffalo Chapter. “Our goal with the American Red Cross CPR Station is to provide a highly cost-effective, full-featured solution that not only helps businesses be compliant with Part 801, but also fosters a greater awareness and knowledge of proper CPR to benefit all New York State.”



The product will be supported through awareness efforts of the New York State Restaurant Association, the New York State Department of Health, and through the American Red Cross.
