EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

Great progress has been made at SALF in the past quarter. SALF has expanded intoFlorida, North Carolina and Pennsylvania, and pre-existing programs in Illinois andWisconsin have been expanded. SALF is working to create programs in WashingtonD.C, Arizona and New York, just to name a few. We have met with the ML, NOAA,Chicago Bar Association, National Citizens Corp, NASCAR, AHA and USCM. SALFalso met twice in person with CDC- meetings which took place in Chicago in July, and inAtlanta in August. There will be many events in the coming year- kick-off events atbranches throughout the country, a presentation to the U.S. Conference of Mayor's inJanuary, and the annual Bridge the Gap Summit in March. In terms of training, wecurrently have a total of 49 Instructors actively training, and to date SALF has trainedalmost 4,000 students since school began in September. This means that SALF expects

to not only meet the agreed upon contractual number of8,000 students to be trained, butto far exceed it, possibly training over 30,000 school children this school year alone.Additionally, the originally goal for number of Instructors was 45. By the end of the yearSALF expects to have nearly 100 Instructors throughout the country- more than doublethe original goal.

A. Major Project Accomplishments/Barriers Mini-grants awarded to branches in FL, WI, PA and IL. Working on developing a program in Washington D.C. with Mayor Anthony

Williams. Awarded grantfromBlue Cross / Blue Shield Charities

Awarded grantfromRonald McDonald House Charities Over 3,000 children trained in the Chicagoland area alone since school began in

September. Major barrier continues to be growth beyond current operating capability. More

attention must be given to thefinancialneeds of the organization in order tomatch the level of interest and potential ofSALF. Upgrades are needed intechnology in order to continue to expand. Additional staff is needed to assist indaily operations at headquarters.

Another barrier is the lack of available research on issues related to pre-EMSservices. This issue, however, is one that SALF hopes to address byimplementing its own research plan.

Progress Report and Request for Continuation Funding (PA04164)From the SAVE A LIFE FOUNDATION, INC

A Program to Train and Educate Children and Adolescents in Basic Life Support

Save A Life Foundation's Mission

"Training and developing "Bystanders", especially children, as volunteers

equipped with Pre-EMS skills to aid the injured or ill in a time of an emergency to

reduce death and disabling injuries".

Section One - Milestone Status:

Terse Summary:

1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program

On going as each student is trained the test results are collected

2. Collect and analyze data on the efficiency of various skills and willingness of

the participant in using their new skills

On going as each student is trained the results are collected and analyzed

3. Explore the formation of SALF sites within health departments, hospital

emergency departments, fire and/or police departments to reach a larger

Illinois and Wisconsin statewide audience and expand into two additional

states.

Task was accomplished and participants awarded

4. Recruit emergency medical service providers as instructors

Initial projection was accomplished and continues to grow to meet

demands.


37/70

5. Develop and strengthen partnerships to reach the appropriate audience

including and not limited to forming a strategic planning group made up of

representatives from federal agencies, national associations, i.e. U.S.

Conference of Mayors, U.S. Homeland Security and its partners, those withinemergency medical service, and other interested parties.

Accomplished targeted group and beyond

Section Two - Progress Report

A. Progress toward objectives


With 26,290 trained students reporting -

i. 94% answering test questions correctly

ii. 85% answering an increased willingness to render aid after they

were trained.

2. Explore an individual with expertise in educational evaluation and research

and is familiar with EMS related training to conduct an IH literature searchof the efficiency of CPR and the Heimlich maneuver by September 1.

2004

Effectiveness of CPR literature review completed (Attachment A).

Note: lack of interest by epidemiologists to pursue study. August 30.

2004

HI research delay was due to lack of interest by numerous

epidemiologists to review subject matter

Effectiveness of the Heimlich maneuver inconclusive due to:

o Individuals the Heimlich maneuver was performed on usual

survive and incident was not reported because the victim

continues on with daily activities.


38/70

3. Identify a group of experts in the field of emergency medicine, education,

municipal government, corporate, federal, state and local agencies to

identify states and/or communities especially those already served by

SALF, to target expansion locations and assist with the implementation by

September 15. 2004.

As a result of SALF identifying four medical experts, two municipal

government, two federal agencies, one corporate and three local

agencies, the following SALF new sites were targeted August 30.

2004. Pennsylvania - American Trauma Society; Florida, Office of

Miami Mayor; Illinois, Alexian Bros' Medical Center, Hanover Park;

Anderson Hospital, Maryville, Illinois; Joliet Fire Department, Joliet,

Illinois

4. Identify potential master instructors from various EMS or healthcare

agencies for expansion process by August 30. 2004.

police background checks on six new master instructors withEmergency Medical Service credentials.

5. Re-develop SALF's web site and existing data collection system to monitor

the effectiveness of training by August 30.2004.

Database Completion delayed because of added programming to

allow other related data to be inputted and stored with class/score

data. This data was initially stored in separate data collection pools

necessitating manual entry and handling. Data now centralized

allowing future reports to reflect Class scores, teachers opinions, and

relative perceived effectiveness to be closely tied to Schools,

instructors, etc.


39/70

Web Site Completion was delayed due to added programming to

include new features not previously available in Host providers Site

offerings. New Templates and client tracking features available from

Host Provider allow us to display information and track site data more

efficiently.

6. Expand and strengthen partnerships with groups, (i.e. Office of Homeland

Security- Citizen Corps - Medical Reserve Corps, U.S. Secretary of

Education, Office of the U.S. Surgeon General, U.S. Conference of

Mayors and municipal governments, corporations, and interested

agencies) by September 15. 2004.

grant.

Corporate America and private sponsorships occurred, including

o Global and Illinois Regional Ronald McDonald House Charities

o Chicago Board of Educationo Illinois/New Mexico/Texas Region Blue Cross Blue Shield

o Comcast Communications, all by JuJy_3CL2004.

B. Maior Findings:

Slower than expected interest in Pre-EMS by Corporate America

Contract approvals slower than expected

More interest in Pre-EMS among government entities than private citizens.

Hospital and/or legal councils caused extensive delayed in expansion.

C. Significance of those findings:

Most funding opportunities focus on injury prevention, few on Pre-EMS

Because of limited resources SALF had to be creative with site

start-up to accommodate financial needs by those requesting

program

Local, state and federal representatives have demonstrated more

interest in SALF training because of our invitations to attend classes in


42/70

their district, we found that both media and the general public still

demonstrates a limited interest.

General observation:

Children (K-12) continue to welcome the instruction and enjoy the local

emergency medical professional, who often becomes a mentor. Their test

scores continue to demonstrate a stable level of retaining the skills and

increasing their interest in helping others in need.

26,290 trained students reporting - out of 39,310 out standingi. 94% answered test questions correctly

ii. 85% demonstrate an increased willingness to render aid

after they were trained.

D. Proposed work

Funding is requested to sustain SALF's infrastructure, support existing SALF

sites, encourage each site to seek local sponsors to retain and expand their

school training independently, find avenues to promote Pre-EMS principles as an

accepted practice to increase public interest, to continually monitor the

effectiveness and saturation of SALF's training, and to maximize the limited

resources SALF receives to meet the growing demand of training our youth.

expense of sub-contracting SALF Senior Instructors i.e. Jim Barnes FF/EMTP,

kind serves to offset the actual setup and operating expenses. Additional

expensive ot & t per student will cover test and evaluation expenses.

The above costs are prorated for only a portion of the year with upfront cost

contributing to the greatest share. The actual start up cost would reflect a larger

number of children trained with a longer time frame and could exceec *? y

Once the initiate set-up cost is executed, a great share of funding will targeted to

the distribution of training. Various training and office supplies will be needed toconduct the training system i.e. disposable lungs, cleaning agents, instructor

uniforms, paper, printer supplies. ($100,000)

Progress Report and Request for No Cost Extension (H28/CCH523764-02))From the SAVE A LIFE FOUNDATION, INC

A Program to Train and Educate Children and Adolescents in Basic Life Support

Save A Life Foundation's Mission

Training and developing "Bystanders", especially children, as volunteers equipped with Pre-EMS

skills to aid in a time of an emergency to reduce death and disabling injuries".

Section One - Milestone Status:

Summary:

1. Collect and analyze data on the implementation of the SALF program.

On going, as each student is trained in life sustaining first aid skills

2. Collect and analyze data on the efficiency of various skills and willingness

of the participant in using their new skills.

On going as each student is trained the results are collected and analyzed

3. Explore the formation of SALF sites within health departments, hospital emergency departments, fire

and/or police departments to reach a larger Illinois, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania statewide audience

and expand into two additional states.

o Task was accomplished and participants awarded

4. Recruit emergency medical service providers as instructors

o Initial projection was accomplished and continues to grow to meet demands.

5. Develop and strengthen partnerships to reach the appropriate audience including and not limited to

forming a strategic planning group made up of representatives from federal agencies, national

associations, i.e. U.S. Conference of Mayors, U.S. Homeland Security and its partners, thosewithin emergency medical service, and other interested parties.

Accomplished targeted group and beyond

Section Two - Progress Report

A. Progress toward objectives


o With training goals of 77,550 students, 40,983 were trained reporting -i. 94% answering test questions correctly

ii. 85% answering an increased willingness to render aid in an emergency

2. Establish relations with a medical institute familiar with the needs of EMS to conduct

research with SALF's LSFA data, to demonstrate the benefits of Life Sustaining First Aid

including CPR and the Heimlich maneuver. Auqust 30, 2005

Note: lack of interest by epidemiologists to pursue the study and review subject matter

caused extensive delay. Not until January 15, 2006 when SALF secured interest bythe New York Medical College.

Interest increased shortly after Louisiana's Katrina Disaster, including the "Illinois

Lincoln Challenge," U.S. Coast Guard Challenge Program. National Civil Air Patrol.

and Jr. ROTC, to conduct controlled research study.

3. Identify a group of experts in the field of emergency medicine, education, municipal

government, corporate, federal, state and local agencies to identify states and/or

communities especially those already served by SALF, to target expansion locations and

assist with the implementation by September 15, 2005

SALF identified four medical experts, two municipalities, two federal agencies, one

corporate and three local agencies. The following SALF new sites were targeted by

December 30. 2005

Peoria Illinois Fire Department, Illinois

Illinois Lincoln Challenge, Rantoul Illinois

Chicago Fire Department 9-1-1 Center, Illinois

Bloomington Hospital, Bloomington, Illinois,

Rutland County Hospital, Vermont

New York Medical College, Valhalla, NY

Illinois Midway Civil Air Patrol, Chicago, IL

Office of Homeland Security:

o U.S. Surgeon General directed all Medical Reserve Corps volunteers to become

SALF Instructors and help train local school children and adults with SALF programs.

He further included SALF in his "Year of the Health Child" initiative.

Illinois Municipal League - assisted in the development of new SALF sites.

o Illinois Lincoln Challenge, Rantoul, Illinois

o Peoria Fire Department, Peoria, Illinois

o Marion Hospital, Illinois

o Kankakee Hospital, Illinois

o Bloomington Hospital, Illinois

VELCO - Vermont Electric Power Company, Inc. sponsored the creation of SALF site atRutland Medical Center, Vermont

American Trauma Society in Pennsylvania - SALF site in Mechanicsburg, PA. In addition

Pennsylvania Department of EMS matched SALF's support - agreed number of children to be

trained 1.200 by Aoril 2007

U.S. Conference of Mayor's assisted:

o SALF site, Green Bay, Wisconsino SALF site, Santa Barbara, CA

o SALF site, Burnsville, MN

U.S. Citizen Corps

o SALF site, Phoenix, AZ

New Partners

U.S. Coast Guard's Challenge program

National Civil Air Patrol

January 2006


57/70

Ongoing:

> SALF's new site at Illinois MidwayAirport. SALF developed a relationship with the

National Civil Air Patrol to establish a SALF sites nationally at each of their 1,700 sites

and train 175,000 CAP cadets (14-19 years).

> SALF's new site at Rantoul, Illinois, (Lincoln's ChalleNge), developed a relationship toinclude a SALF site at 33 ChalleNge sites nationally.

Number of students contracted to be trained by SALF sites = 77.550. exceeding original

projections by 23.3%

7. Identify potential and on going national and local sponsoring organizations for the national

expansion program in the targeted states. August 30.2005

Each SALF Site agreed to match funds to SALF's mini grant with in-kind services.

Corporate America and private sponsorships occurred include:

o Ronald McDonald House Global, Illinois Regional and Vermont Regional Charitieso Chicago Board of Educationo Illinois/New Mexico/Texas Region Blue Cross Blue Shieldo CCF Bank Illinois and Minnesotao Comcast Communications May. 2007

Maior Findings:

A slight increased interest in Pre-EMS training by corporate America after Louisiana

Hurricane Katrina's disaster but still very slow.

More interest in Pre-EMS, among government entities, than by private citizens. Public still

assumes that it's the duty of public servants to be trained and perform and not theirs.

Hospital or EMS site legal council caused extensive delayed in expanding due to liability

concerns.

Recent discovery by corporate interest to support SALF because of its direct affiliations

with U.S. Homeland Security

Significance of those findings:

Many funding opportunities still focus on injury prevention rather than on Pre-EMS issues

Because of limited resources SALF had to be creative with site start-up to accommodate

financial needs by those requesting our program

Local, state and federal political representatives demonstrate more interest in the need for

SALF training after witnessing classes in their district. Although there was a significant

~) -IS)

increase by the public and corporate America to support Pre-EMS after Louisiana's

Katrina Disaster it dropped sharply soon after media coverage stopped. The strongest

advocate still remains municipal leaders (mayors).

General program observation:

Children (K-12) continue to welcome SALF instruction and enjoy the local emergency medical

professional who often becomes their mentor. Their test scores continue to demonstrate a stable

level of skills retention and increased interest in helping others in need. Two reported lives were

by SALF trained students shortly after they received their training.

o 40,983 reported trained students - out of 77,550 of which 36,567 is still out standing

i. 94% answered test questions correctly

ii. 85% demonstrate an increased willingness to render aid after they were

trained.

Proposed work

Funding extension requested to sustain SALF's infrastructure, encourage each site to seek local

sponsors to retain and expand their school training independently, find avenues to promote Pre-EMS

principles as an accepted practice, increase public interest, monitor the effectiveness and saturation of

SALF's training, and to maximize the limited resources SALF receives to meet the growing demand of

training our youth.

Publications

Attached - SALF training saves life of classmate

Section 3 - Proposed Milestones. FY07

EXTENSION GOAL:

To sustain SALF existing sites, and complete tasks that were delayed by numerous causes, including

a national disaster.

Objectives:

o Continue training at selected sites throughout the funding periodo Identify three additional program sponsors, bv February. 2007

o Use available data to evaluate program activities
