          9. Medical/Personal Liability: Courses may include physical strain, possibility of cross-infection, and emotional stress.  If your physician has recommended that you avoid strenuous activity or limit your activity in any way, you may wish to consult with them prior to taking the course.  The provision of CPR may be physically demanding.  This is true for both practicing on the manikin and performing CPR for a cardiac arrest victim.  You may be required to both kneel and rise repeatedly, as well as spend extended time in a kneeling position during this course.  Ability Care Services, INC. will assume no liability for injuries, illness, etc. that result from course attendance.
