CPR Saves Lives

About 350,000 Cardiac Arrests happen outside the Hospital setting every year. Approximately  7 out of 10 Cardiac Arrests happen at home.

Unfortunately, half of these people do not receive bystander CPR while waiting for an ambulance.

If you have not been trained in CPR, you can still help by giving chest compression only CPR to circulate blood to the heart and brain until Medical Professionals arrive.

If a person is unresponsive (does not respond if you tap them or shout) and is not breathing normally (only gasping), Call 9-1-1- immediately and ask someone to find an AED (Automated External Defibrillator). Begin chest compressions, pushing hard on the center of the chest over the lower half of the breastbone. After every time you push, let the chest come all the way back up. Continue chest compressions until Medical Professionals arrive and take over.
