From
SAVE A LIFE FOUNDATION, INC.
TO
EXPAND THE TRAINING OF BASIC LIFE SUPPORTING FIRST AID
AND INJURY PREVENTION for Children and Adolescents
BACKGROUND
Save A Life Foundation, Inc. was established in 1992 in the aftermath of a fatal motor
vehicle crash involving Christina Jean Spizzirri. Christina's mother, Carol Spizzirri
founded the organization to prevent this tragedy from happening to anyone else. Save A
Life Foundation, Inc.'s (SALF) mission is to heighten public awareness of the critical
importance of early intervention in medical emergencies, and the promotion of training of
individuals in basic life support techniques to provide them with the practical skills
necessary to perform these interventions.
Lessons learned early in life establish the behavioral patterns of a lifetime and become a
part of a person's core beliefs and values. SALF has chosen to focus on teaching young
people basic life support techniques and CPR. The SALF programs help produce more
responsible young people by providing them with knowledge, confidence and a desire to
come to the aid of others in traumatic situations.
The primary programs offered by SALF are Save A Life for Kids and Bystander Basics.
Save A Life for Kids is a one hour program that teaches elementary school children
(kindergarten through grade eight) age appropriate emergency life saving skills including
scene safety, contacting emergency medical services, opening an airway, the Heimlich
Maneuver, rescue breathing, bleeding control and early heart attack care. The two-hour
Bystander Basics program for young adults (ages 13 and older) covers all of the topics in
Save A Life for Kids and adds CPR. All of the SALF programs have been carefully
developed to provide age appropriate learning activities and have been reviewed for
accuracy by the SALF Medical Advisory Board. SALF student educational programs
deliver a high quality product at no cost to the children of the public school system, with
an average skills retention rate of 97 percent (based on testing conducted 90 days after
course completion) and a 57 percent increase in desire or willingness to assist in a medical
emergency (based upon comparative testing conducted pre- and post-training).
The adult programs offered by SALF include the Bystander Basics A.E.D. Program and
the Bystander Basic Advanced Programs. The Bystander Basics A.E.D. Program is a three
and a half hour program geared toward adults 17 years and older. The Bystander Basic
Advanced Program is designed to be in compliance with the OSHA First Aid Standard 29
CFR 1920.151 and to meet the "first aid" requirements for daycare providers. All
programs have been approved by the Illinois Department of Public Health, and numerous
EMS Regional Project Medical Directors.

training programs against the national BELS educational.
Congress has identified the need for a program that will prepare the public, especially
children, to deal with injury prevention and the treatment of injuries until emergency
medical services providers can arrive on the scene of an incident. The Save A Life
Foundation has developed its age appropriate training courses utilizing the NHTSA
Bystander Care National Standard Curriculum and other national standard curricula
endorsed by medical groups, national first aid training associations, and providers of
training in first aid and CPR, and Automatic External Defibrillators.
The following activities taken by SALF and supported by Illinois Department of Public
Health will continue to address the need for training in injury prevention and for the
treatment of illness and injuries as identified by Congress.
The validation of the SALF programs against national education frame work for Basic
Emergency Lifesaving Skills (BELS)
Establish a SALF state office branch to facilitate the state-wide expansion of the SALF
programs
PROJECT OBJECTIVES:
PURPOSE: To promote training and education in Basic Emergency Skills (B.E.S.T.) for
children and adolescents thereby reducing child and adolescent morbidity
and mortality sustained by illness or injury.
With the successful completion of this FY 2002 project, SALF anticipates that there will
be a significant reduction in the morbidity and mortality from injury as more and more
children and adults utilize the products produced and disseminated by this project. This
objective will be reached by performing the following:
• Develop a plan to expand the SALF Programs statewide.
• Monitor and evaluate the state-wide expansion of the SALF Programs
• Collect data on the implementation of the SALF programs.
• Establish a SALF state office branch to facilitate the state-wide expansion of the SALF
programs
• Develop and implement SALF's "B.E.S.T." partner program within each EMS Region
PHASE ONE: FIELD-TESTING THE PROGRAM
Phase One of this project was completed in 2001. The Save A Life Foundation, Inc. began
the child, adolescent and adult educational programs in 1995, following the identification
of a need in 1992 and the gradual development of the programs during the years of 1992 to
1998. The decision was made to place these programs in the local school systems. The
participation of the school systems would insure reaching the greatest number of children
across all race and socio-economical levels. Phase One was accomplished prior to the
request for this line-item and included the implementation of the program in the State of
Illinois, most specifically in the Chicago and Chicago suburban area and centrally in the
State of Illinois in the Springfield area.
• Identify a need for basic life supporting training for the public. This need was
identified in 1993 with the establishment of the Save A Life Foundation, Inc.
• Identify potential target audience, to include children, school systems, health
centers, employers and others.
• Identify potential local sponsoring organizations. This has been an on-going
process that includes areas of funding for this foundation.
• Develop age appropriate training programs for children, adolescents and adults.
Includes master trainer and trainer courses for potential instructors. These target
audiences were identified in 1995 with the development of the Save A Life for
Kids and the Bystander Basics programs.
• Identify target group leaders and work with them to support the introduction of the
SALF programs in their communities. This process includes the implementation of
a local branch of SALF at St. John's Hospital, Springfield, Illinois and St. Alexious
and Alexian Brother's Medical Center, Hanover Park, IL.
• Identify a cadre of potential instructors from various EMS and healthcare agencies
within an EMS Region.
• Present a master trainer course.

available.
• During Phase One the Save A Life Foundation, Inc. has been able to bring the
educational programs it has developed to over 400,000 children since the inception
of the training programs in 1995. Current data collection has shown that students
trained in the SALF programs have a 97 percent skills retention rate after three
months and a 57 percent positive attitude change in the willingness of helping those
in need. If the state government had funded these important and necessary
activities fully, it would have cost approximately 1.1 million dollars. The success of
this program in targeted communities in Illinois shows that the program is ready for
further statewide expansion.
Task 12: Identify EMS Regions, within Illinois to for statewide expansion.
SALF will submit the names of the EMS Regions chosen for statewide expansion.
SALF will submit the names of the state implementation strategic planning group.
Task 14: Identify potential state and local sponsoring organizations for the state

establishment of the office. Additionally, SALF will submit the name and
professional vitae of individual chosen as Regional Facilitator.
Task 18: SALF will present a master trainer course to the potential instructors
included in the statewide expansion process.
A copy of the master trainer course utilized for the training process will be included
in the final report.
Task 21: Collect data on each step of the program and continue with data collection

Electric 250
TOTAL 55000
(The above costs are prorated for only a portion of the year. The
actual estimated start up cost to establish a branch is $70,000.00)
The amount allocated for this funding is based upon the cost for training children in the
Illinois system that was developed by SALF. At a rate of $5.00 per child, it is estimated
that in the first 6 months of the opening of an office, a total of 1780 children can be trained
utilizing the SALF programs.
Rent
The amount of rent is estimated on local and regional basis. This money will be utilized
for the rental of office space being used by the new community or state office.
Secretary Salary/Benefits
The amount allocated for this salary is based on local and regional averages. The part time
salary expected for a 12-month period for the current fiscal year would be $18,000 with
benefits of $2,000 to be paid by the employer from the fund.
The amount of salary is based on local and regional averages for this job title. The salary
is expected to be spent over a period of six months. The salary is based on 50 percent of a

This amount includes the cost of materials to be purchased for the 1780 children that are
estimated to be taught in the six-month period of operation. These supplies will be
purchased from the national office of SALF.
Scantron
Each branch will require a Scantron machine and software program to process each
student's answer sheet. This testing process requires the purchase of a separate answer
sheet for each child.
Mannequins
The mannequins required for this grant are needed for demonstrations and return
demonstration in the classroom for the teaching of the CPR sections of the curriculum.
This is a one-time purchase for each state or community office and will be utilized on a
continual basis and replaced as wear occurs. Each office will need to purchase at least 20
mannequins at a cost of $85.00. This will require a total outlay of $1700.
Fax
A fax machine is an integral part of any office set up. The money allocated for purchase of
this machine is $500. The fax will be utilized to communicate data and reports to the state
office for tabulation. It will also be utilized for confirmation of classes that are to be taught
by the Regional office.
The computer and accessories will be utilized for the tabulation of the data from the
classes, correspondence and a multitude of other jobs within the new Regional office. This
is a one-time purchase for the Regional office.
The amount allocated for advertising and marketing of the courses offered by the Regional
office is for a period of 6 months. This allows each office to develop their materials and
announce plans for the new program that is being implemented in each state or community.
The amounts allocated for this line item are required for operation of the utilities needed
for Regional office. These are estimates, based upon amounts required by offices currently
in use in the State of Illinois. The money allocated is for a period of 6 months of
operation.

Just a note to thank you for going over to Don Kaueraufs office to give him thumbs up on SALF. Don
advised me to contact Jeanna Swehia Monday, who is handling these funds, and adviser her of my
conversation with Don. Don stated that the monies they received from federal funds was from the first
grant which only was $300,000. But he feels that SALF could benefit in a smaller way, probably in a was
a targeted issue. I will keep you posted.
Meanwhile, I received a call from Tim Anderson's assistant Denlae Gaines, not related to Dr. Gaines.
She asked for a brief description of what SALF does so Tim can advocate our needs fnfront of the
Homeland Security Budget Committee, (see attached)
It truly is inspiring to know that one has friends, like you and Bill, working behind the scenes. We have
worked together a long time and I am privilege to have you two in my corner.
After the first of the year, I would like to schedule a meeting with you, Bill, Tim and whom ever you think
appropriate to discuss how to line-item SALF into a yearly budget.

PROCUREMENT BUSINESS CASE
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY:
Training and developing "Bystanders" starting with children as volunteers equipped with Life Supporting First Aid Skills to aid the injured or ill in a time of an
emergency to reduce death and disabling injuries.
OBJECTIVE:
To train and educate basic Life Support skills to children and adolescents thereby reducing child, adolescent and adult morbidity and mortality sustained by illness or
injury; to provide a cadre of sufficiently trained individual with useful skills to respond in an emergency with prompt aid to the victim until emergency professionals
arrive; to develop a sufficient number of sustainable partnerships to strengthen the success of the project; to demonstrate that trained children have the ability to
understand the skills and become more willing to aid a victim of a man-made, natural or personal emergency after learning the skills; and to demonstrate the Pre-EMS
level of response verses EMS level to lay public.
HISTORY/BACKGROUND:
Save a Life Foundation (SALF) was established in 1992 in the aftermath of a fatal motor vehicle crash involving Christina Jean Spizzirri. Christina's mother, Carol
Spizzirri founded the organization to prevent this tragedy from happening to anyone else. SALF's goal is to heighten public awareness of the critical importance of
early intervention in medical emergencies and the promotion of training individuals in basic life support techniques to provide them with practical skills necessary to
perform these interventions. Lessons learned early in life establish the behavoral patterns of a lifetime and become a part of a person's core beliefs and values, thus
SALF focuses on teaching young people K-12, in age appropriate basic life support techniques i.e. the use of an automatic external defibrillator (AED), clearing an
airway obstruction and the Heimlich maneuver, external hemorrage control, poisoning for shock and unconsciousness (coma), CPR, infectious disease and biological
precautions. The SALF age appropriate programs help produce more responsible young people by providing them with knowledge, confidence, and a desire to come
to the aid of others in traumatic situations.
RISK ASSESSMENT:
Ability to have a trained individual, no matter what age they are, trained in basic life support and first aide.
09/10/2004 12:20 PM
The ability of individuals to provide first aid immediately to accident victims and seriously ill people.

Appropriation 001 -48220-1900-01 -00
Please find enclosed our signed Illinois Department of Public Health Grant Agreement. It has been a
great honor to work with such dedicated people as those within IDPH, such as William Bell and Mark
Danner these past 9 years. We are grateful for their help and support and look forward to continuing our
relationship in an effort to achieve both our life saving goals.
We are additionally grateful to Governor Rod Blagojevich and our state legislators who see the value of
preparing our children to be Pre-EMS ready should they face an unexpected life threatening emergency,
as demonstrated by Senate President Emil Jones who earlier this year saved a woman's life with the
Heimlich Maneuver. Dr. Henry Heimlich, SALF's founding Medical Board member, was extremely
pleased and recognized his heroic accomplishment.
Thank you for your kind letter of October 12th, and I look to your leadership over the up coming months.

6. Basic Grant Terms: The parties understand and agree that the attached Basic Grant Terms
are fully incorporated herein by reference and are binding upon both parties hereto.
Rather than call a big meeting or visit each of you, I'm going to try to do this by email. As you know, there
are a variety of MOU's and Legislative Add-ons that we need to initiate action on in order to process and
obligate grants, make payments, etc.. For some, the Governor's Office has called with some additional
detail on who gets what. For others, I believe the responsible office will need to speak with the Director's
Office on additional guidance. So here goes, in no particular order.
SIDS: Health Promotion, $250 thousand GRF. The grant is intended to go to the Sudden Infant Death
Services of Illinois (formerly known as the SIDS Alliance of Illinois). I don't have a contact number, but
Pam Borchardt and Nancy Maruyama are the Co-Executive Directors.
Milestone Dental Clinic, Inc: Health Promotion, $76,700 PH Special State Projects Fund. I don't have the
contact information but Denise may have it or could contact Rep. Miller.
Farm Resource Center: Health Promotion, $300 thousand GRF. This grant was previously administered
by DHS so the first step should be to contact them for a copy of last year's grant and/or contact
information.
Ovarian Cancer Research: Women's Health, $100 thousand GRF. Sharon, please work with Denise and
Representative Osterman in the identification of the preferred recipient. The Governor's Office is okay
with the choice agreed to between us and the Representative. At one time, I believe it was for
Northwestern.
Save A Life: Preparedness (EMS), $700 thousand GRF. We've had this one several times before, should
be an easy grant agreement to process. Please work with Mark Danner if necessary, he has administered
this grant previously when it was in the Office of Health Care Regulation.
HRDI: Health Protection/Minority Health, $400 thousand GRF. We are splitting this grant between Health
Protection for $225 thousand and Minority Health for $175 thousand. Last year's grant was for $350
thousand so we should already have the contact information and general parameters for the grant. Tom
and Doris should coordinate on this.
Howard Brown Health Center: Health Protection, $58 thousand GRF. We need to contact them and get a
proposal and budget and from discussions with Tom, it seems reasonable to use the Immunization
Outreach line item to fund this MOU since the MOU mentions hepatitis education and vaccines.
AIDS Foundation of Chicago: Health Protection, $100 thousand GRF. This is a MOU to this organization
for housing for HIV homeless persons. I assume we have a contact to call and can get this grant moving.
Hep C/HIV: Health Protection, $100 thousand GRF. This grant is for the Georgia Doty Foundation and
Don Doty is to be contacted at (312) 567-0930 to initiate the grant process. If there are any difficulties in
reaching out, Denise can work with Representative Howard.
HIV in Correctional Facilities: Health Protection, $2 million GRF. I believe this money is for DPH to
distribute or use to perform HIV testing for inmates going in and going out of correctional facilities. This
issue with undoubtedly need to be discussed with the Director and others. To our knowledge, there is not
a designated recipient for this add-on as the responsibility for testing lies with us.
UIC Sickle Cell: Health Protection, $1 million GRF. We already provide this entity with a $1.8 million grant
from the Tobacco Settlement Fund. I suspect it is for the same purpose/project and we can provide them
one grant from both funding sources. Obviously we know the contact person for this grant from previous
ALAN FOWLER - MOU's/Add-Ons ^^^ Page 2
years and we can double check if it's agreed to put everything together.
I think that's it. We are already proceeding with a grant to the Franciscan Outreach Association, Northern
Suburban Special Recreation Association, and Chicago State which will cover the remaining MOU's. Of
course, we have our own $1 million to spend for Health Care Justice and we're still awaiting confirmation
from the Governor's Office regarding a $250 thousand add-on for Hep/HIV preventive health and wellness
services to the re-entry population at transitional facilities at Dixmorr and Chicago.
Sorry for the length of this note but there are a lot of details here. The task at hand now is the get going
on getting these grants processed. You'll need to reach out to a contact, get all the required grant
information (FEIN, address, proposal, budget, etc) and get the process going. Like last year, the
Governor's Office will likely be requesting updates on the status of each of our MOU's and Legislative Add
ons (LAO's) so I know the Director's Office wants to get a jump on this. Soon I'll be asking for the first
update and I'll be using this note as our check-list of who is working on what. Thanks and off we go.

Some of the goals of the Save A Life Foundation Grant are as follows:
To train and educate children and adolescents in basic Life Support First Aid skills, thus
reducing child, adolescent and adult morbidity and mortality sustained by illness or injury.
To provide a cadre of sufficiently trained individuals with useful LSFA skills to respond in an
http://cmsremweb.state.il.us/arsys/servlet/NativeReportServlet 8/30/2005
Page 3 of4
; emergency with prompt aid to the victim until emergency professionals arrive.
To demonstrate that once trained, children have the ability to understand LSFA skills and
become more willing to aid a victim of a man-made, natural or personal emergency after
learning these skills now and into adulthood.
SALF has trained nearly 1 million Illinois children for free since 1997. This training has taken
place in Illinois school districts, Chicago Public Schools being a major resource. SALF has
expanded its free training for school children to nearly 60 counties across Illinois, stretching
from Winnebago in the north to Williamson in the South, and from Adams County on the
Mississippi River to Will County on the Indiana border, with deep saturation throughout Lake
and Cook County as a result of State Assembly Earmarks.
SALF currently provides a Scantron data collection web base testing system as part of its
training for each student to demonstrate retention skills and behavioral change. This system
can easily implement any other necessary research component that a state or agency may
require. (Current data collected demonstrates a 97% skills retention level after 3 months, with
a 57% attitude change by the student to render aid to an injured or ill patient).

vehicle crash involving Christina Jean Spizzirri. Christina's mother, Carol Spizzirri
founded the organization to prevent this tragedy from happening to anyone else. SALF's
goal is to heighten public awareness of the critical importance of early intervention in
medical emergencies, and the promotion of training individuals in basic life support
techniques to provide them with practical skills necessary to perform these interventions.
Lessons learned early in life establish the behavioral patterns of a lifetime and become a
part of a person's core beliefs and values, thus SALF focuses on teaching young people
K-12, in age appropriate basic life support techniques i.e. the use of an automatic external
defibrillator (AED), clearing an airway obstruction and the Heimlich maneuver, external
hemorrhage control, positioning for shock and unconsciousness (coma), CPR, infectious
disease and biological precautions. The SALF age appropriate programs help produce
more responsible young people by providing them with knowledge, confidence, and a
desire to come to the aid of others in traumatic situations.
The following activities have begun to address the need to train individuals in injury
prevention and treatment of illness and injuries as identified by Illinois General
Assembly.
SALF ACTIVITIES:
/. Established a state office in Illinois to facilitate the six (6) existing Illinois SALF
sites and to open an additional two (2) to saturate Illinois with enough prepared

children for free since 1997. This training has taken place in Illinois school
districts, Chicago Public Schools being a major resource. SALF has expanded its
free training for school children to nearly 60 counties across Illinois, stretching
from Winnebago in the north to Williamson in the South, and from Adams
County on the Mississippi River to Will County on the Indiana border, with deep
Earmarks.
GOAL:
To train and educate children and adolescents in basic Life Support First Aid skills
(LSFA), thus reducing child, adolescent and adult morbidity and mortality sustained by
illness or injury.
OBJECTIVES:
LSFA skills and become more willing to aid a victim of a man-made, natural
or personal emergency after learning these skills now and into adulthood.
4. To enlighten the lay public about the value of Pre-EMS response prior to EMS
arrival.
PERFORMANCE MEASUREMENTS:
2. Collect data on the willingness of the participant in using their LSFA skills.
3. Explore the formation of new and existing SALF branches within emergency
medical related county health locations, including hospitals, fire and police
departments; broadening and expanding our reach statewide and supplying each
with a mini grant to seed LSFA skills training operations.

Taylor Tosovsky and Rachel Wiesehan have been best friends since
kindergarten. But now their friendship means something more. Both
girls, who are 10-years-old, are students at St. Bonafice and play on
the Metro United soccer team. Last weekend the girls had a match in
Jefferson City, Mo. Taylor and another friend walked to get some ice.
When the two were walking back, she put a piece of ice in her mouth
and it lodged in her throat. At first, Taylor's friend thought she was
playing, but she was choking. Her friend called out for help and help
came in a small, brown-haired, big-eyed, little girl. Rachel remembered
the steps she had been taught in the Save A Life assembly she had
attended at school the week before. The fireman had showed Rachel
and her fellow classmates how to properly give the Heimlich Maneuver
and how to perform CPR.
"I heard people yelling and I ran out in the hall," Wiesehan said. "I
just started giving her the Heimlich, I didn't really even think about it."
Rachel helped save Taylor's life and she learned how by the Save A
Life program.
The program is now offered in schools all across the United States.
Locally, the program is administered at St. Mary's, Trinity School
and St. Bonafice. Captain Tom Dannenberg of the Edwardsville
Fire Department said the program varies with the age group. "The

Great progress has been made at Save A Life Foundation (SALF) in the past school
year. In terms of training, SALF has increased our Illinois instructor pool by 87% and
has trained 44,207 Illinois K-12 students since school began in September, ft is through
Instructor and staff dedication to the SALF Mission that the children of Illinois are being
trained to Save A Life.
Chicago Public Schools, Chicago, Illinois: SALF has completed another successful
year with the Chicago Public School System, training 34,970 K-12 students. Our current
concern is to acquire a home for the CPS HUB (currently operated out of SALF HQ by
Saquan Gholar, National Education Administrator) and a new facilitator. Requests have
been made with the Chicago Fire Department to locate a new branch home within the
department. SALF hopes to have the new branch and facilitator in place prior to the
beginning of the 2006/07 school year.
Anderson Hospital, Maryville, Illinois: Eric Brandmeyer, EMS Coordinator and SALF
HUB Facilitator for Anderson Hospital has made huge strides to expand the SALF
program in the East Metro Area. The Anderson Hospital/SALF HUB trained 1878
student during the 2005/06 school year. With help from Carrie Viehweg, SALF Illinois
State Director, Anderson Hospital/SALF HUB is expanding into new markets by
establishing Satellite offices with MedStar and Greenville Hospital Eric and Carrie are
now setting their sites on establishing a satellite in East St. Louis. With these new
satellites in place, the market area that would fall under the Anderson Hospital/SALF
umbrella would include approximately 75,000 K-12 students. Anderson Hospital/SALF
HUB should have potential to double their training numbers in the coming school year
Anderson Hospital/SALF HUB'S contract will be renewed in August.
Lake County: 1200 Lake County K-12 students were trained during the 2005/06 school
year.
Bond County: 6gi Bond County K-12 students were trained during the 2005/06 school
