About the Host
Jeanie Edwards is the founder of THE CPR GALS, a Morgantown-based business dedicated to preparing residents and businesses for emergencies through CPR, first aid, and disaster preparedness training. With over four decades of experience in health and safety instruction, emergency medical services, and disaster response in Pasadena, California, Edwards relocated to Morgantown in 2014, encouraged by her best friend. She emphasizes the importance of prompt action during emergencies, noting that receiving definitive treatment within the first 60 minutes—known as the "golden hour"—significantly improves outcomes. Edwards highlights the unique challenges in rural areas like West Virginia, where resources may be limited and response times longer, making individual preparedness crucial. She advocates for comprehensive training to equip people with the skills needed to handle various emergencies, thereby enhancing community resilience.
Jeanie has extensive background in emergency preparedness, disaster response, and EMS training, including your role in developing programs since the 1970s
Her current offerings include emergency preparedness programs for homes, schools, and businesses.
