RQI Save Story
Christiana Adams, who works at Salem Health, was forced to put her RQI skills to the test when, while out on a walk, saw an individual down and resuscitated them. She credits RQI with giving her the ability to properly perform CPR, enabling her to save a life.
RQI has had a significant impact on the culture at Salem Health. Staff have recognized the importance of skill proficiency, and the opportunity to practice quarterly makes staff feel more comfortable, competent, and confident.
