G.I.R.L. to the
Rescue!
The Girl Scouts of Citrus will be partnering with Linsey
Svajda, an American Red Cross BLS Instructor, to
launch the “G.I.R.L. to the Rescue” program. Linsey
has been teaching Basic Life Support (BLS) as well as
Baby Sitter and child care courses for several years.
First aid classes can help you recognize the signs that
someone needs help and administer the right type
of care. Baby Sitter and child care will prepare Girl
Scouts to become the most capable, trusted and in
demand sitters in their neighborhoods.
With “G.I.R.L. to the Rescue” Girl Scouts will:
• Understand how to care for younger children;
• Know how to use everything in a first aid kit;
• Find out how to prevent serious outdoor injuries;
• Know the signs of shock and how to treat it; and
• Learn to prevent and treat injuries due to weather
