First Aid and Dental Care at Sea

Jim Nordstrom, DDS ("Toothpick") is a practicing dentist, but he also has offered classes to VYC members, as well as others, on CPR and first aid for boaters.  Jim will present ideas on avoiding injuries and health issues, as well as practical solutions for dealing with them if they can't be avoided.

Jim has been a practicing dentist for 35 years; the last five years primarily oral surgery in a county dental clinic after being in private practice for 30 years. In addition to dental responsibilities, he has taught first aid and CPR for the National Ski Patrol for 25 years, and is a scuba diving specialist, teaching entry level diving up to search and rescue in open water. Boating has been his passion all his life, growing up in Northern California, near the coast.
