Vicki Stubbs, who was at the Safeway and aided victims of the tragic shooting on January 8; Dr. Randall Friese of University Medical Center; Daniel Hernandez, and Mark Kimball of Congresswoman Giffords' office about to make statements for the media. They all thanked the community for turning out by the hundreds to learn lifesaving skills.
Transcription of remarks from press conference, 12 noon, Saturday, 3/19/11, Doubletree Hotel at Reid Park, Tucson, Arizona.
Daniel Hernandez, Intern to Congresswoman Giffords:
"It's rewarding for me to take part in this, to help people learn the skills we used on January 8 to help save lives. In this 45 minute session today, we learned hands-only CPR and the treatment of shock and wounds. It is rewarding for me to help get people here to take part in this training, and hopefully in the future to get certified from the Red Cross."
Mark Kimball, Communications Aide to Congresswoman Giffords:
"I'd really like to thank and congratulate the Southern Arizona Chapter of the American Red Cross for putting on these extraordinary events in Tucson, and around Southern Arizona, and I'd like to thank Safeway and Walgreens for stepping up and sponsoring these events because the employees were deeply affected by the events of January 8. They've taken it upon themselves to be part of the solution, to make something good come out of the tragedy.
"We saw the importance of basic first aid skills that day, as people did extraordinary things during the chaos of the shooting. These skills are what we are training this morning and this afternoon.
"Whether in a shopping center or in Japan, it's crucial for people to know lifesaving skills."
Dr. Randall Friese, Trauma Surgeon, University Medical Center:
"I'm extremely honored to lend my support to this successful event by the Red Cross. Trauma care is a service we provide in the hospital, but pre-hospital care and citizen caregivers are an important part of the trauma system in any community. The care people receive at the scene greatly improves a patient's chance of recovery and getting back home with their families. I'm grateful for the turnout today here and all across the country. Thank you Red Cross for this successful event."
Vicki Stubbs, citizen responder:
"I was at Safeway on January 8. I'm honored to be here today, and I thank the American Red Cross. I want this to be my message -- I implore and ask for a call to action. for more people to get certified from the Red Cross."
Richard White, Executive Director, American Red Cross, Southern Arizona Chapter:
"Red Cross chapters across the country are extremely proud to be teaching this from Alaska to Puerto Rico, all at the same time. I was at the Northwest YMCA earlier today, and Suzy Hileman came by -- she's the woman who brought Christina-Taylor Green to the shopping center. Suzy stood in front of the group at 9:00 a.m. and told them that were it not for total strangers who'd taken the Red Cross classes, and were willing and courageous enough, she wouldn't be here, her husband would not have a wife, her children would not have a mother, and she couldn't attend her daughter's wedding next year.
"Most people take Red Cross classes because they have to, for work. But most people use the skills they learn to save the life of a loved one at home. We're proud to be teaching 1,500-2,000 people in Southern Arizona today. There's a lot more we can provide in terms of training. Go to www.redcrossarizona.org, and find out about first aid kits so you can be ready when there is an emergency. Thank you."

Learning first aid was a lot of fun - especially the gruesome made up wounds which really impressed the girls. The girls learnt how to treat these wounds, bandaging etc under the beautiful shade of a gum tree.
