Celebrating Local Heroes: Rescue Training Institute Instructor Honored for Life-Saving Efforts

Chloe Foster and Brandon Stoakley were honored in a Heroes Ceremony at Rescue Training Institute for their life-saving efforts.

Two local heroes were honored for their life-saving efforts after administering CPR and naloxone to a man suffering from fentanyl poisoning. Chloe Foster, a Rescue Training Institute instructor, was teaching a Babysitting CPR and Child Babysitting Safety class in Sacramento when she witnessed a man in distress. She quickly sprung into action with Mission Oaks employee Brandon Stoakley to provide CPR and first aid. The two started hands-only CPR on the man after using an AED and administered two doses of naloxone, commonly known as Narcan, which restored the man’s breathing and pulse. The man was then transferred to AMR who transported him to a nearby local hospital.

We celebrated Foster and Stoakley’s life-saving efforts on September 20th at the Rescue Training Institute’s headquarters in Folsom, California. The American Heart Association, the Health and Safety Institute, the Sacramento County Board of Supervisors, and Rescue Training Institute deemed Foster and Stoakley heroes, honoring them with a Heroes Ceremony.

At the Heroes Ceremony, Rescue Training Institute President Greg Landin and Operations Manager Abby Wik gave speeches applauding and commending these two local heroes whose CPR training resulted in saving a man’s life. Chloe Foster expressed gratitude for her own CPR training, stating that without these resources, saving the man’s life would not have been possible. The rescuers had administered two doses of Narcan, a medication that rapidly reverses an opioid overdose. Rescue Training Institute President Greg Landin also spoke about fentanyl poisoning, and the importance of training to combat this epidemic. Each attendee at the Heroes Ceremony received a gift bag containing Narcan, as well as a CPR mouth barrier.

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recently issued a Health Alert Network Advisory to medical and public health professionals, first responders, and other community partners regarding the recent increase in opioid-related deaths. The CDC recommends expanding the distribution and use of Narcan, as well as overdose prevention education.

Rescue Training Institute offers overdose prevention education as part of our Basic First Aid with CPR and AED class. Since 1990, Rescue Training Institute has been offering top-quality first aid CPR training in Sacramento and Northern California. Today, Rescue Training Institute is a distinguished fixture in the Sacramento and Roseville communities, with thousands of satisfied students returning for additional first aid CPR training and BLS certification year after year. To date, Rescue Training Institute has trained over 140,000 students in over 11,000 classes.
