Addendum to video presentation to children

I now include a discussion about slurred speech in my presentations, since a teacher asked me about it. I thought it was so important that I made a separate video to point it out to you. Thank you for watching, please talk to your children about slurred speech.

Hello, my name is Paul Nicholson,

THANK YOU for visiting my 911 education website. I am very passionate about teaching children how and when to call 911 for help. Around 2001 when my son was 5 years old, he saw me fall from a cement truck and I was taken away in an ambulance. Sixty days later he asked me why I didn't die. I told him “God was not done with me and I have things to do."

"My son told me he didn't know what to do in an emergency...

... And that really impacted me!"

He immediately asked me “What are you going to do and when will you be done." I told him I could not answer him right then and there but would let him know once I figured it out. Six months later I found the 911 Simulator at a Red Cross seminar and that started my passion for helping children help themselves and others.

So what can you do!

Children need to know how to identify their location including when away from home. Make sure everyone knows about 911 emergency service and they know their full name, address and phone number. Get involved with 911 education! Link to What Can I do?
