PVMHS student assists in saving life<br />
A <strong>Peabody</strong> High School senior<br />
in the medical assistant<br />
program has first-hand experience<br />
in the importance of CPR<br />
training.<br />
Nicole Venuti and her fellow<br />
medical assistant students<br />
recently wrote a letter<br />
to Governor Charlie Baker<br />
requiring all high school seniors<br />
to have CPR and AED<br />
training as a graduation requirement.<br />
The action was<br />
inspired by senior medical<br />
assistant student Franklin<br />
Marcelino, who did his senior<br />
research project on the importance<br />
of cardiopulmonary<br />
resuscitation.<br />
Earlier this year, Venuti put<br />
her CPR experience to lifesaving<br />
use.<br />
On Jan. 13, Venuti was finishing<br />
up her shift as a cashier<br />
at Market Basket when<br />
she and a co-worker, James<br />
Dean, heard a scream from<br />
the back of the store. They<br />
found a person who was not<br />
breathing and had no pulse<br />
on the floor.<br />
Venuti sprung into action<br />
and performed “hands only”<br />
CPR while the other employee<br />
called 911 until there was<br />
a pulse. At that time, the Middleton<br />
ambulance arrived and<br />
took over care of the person.<br />
Venuti said her medical training<br />
from <strong>Peabody</strong> High gave<br />
her the knowledge to jump in<br />
and help.<br />
“It was my first instinct to<br />
help,” she said.<br />
Venuti and Marcelino<br />
both said CPR certification<br />
and AED training as a high<br />
school requirement for graduation<br />
should be viewed as<br />
a “no-brainer.” “Education is<br />
key to survival,” Marcelino<br />
said. “You never know when<br />
these skills will be used, but<br />
you want to have them just in<br />
case it is your loved one.”<br />
