Did you know? About 70% of sudden cardiac arrests happen at home.
That means the person who needs to act first is often a spouse, parent, child, friend, or neighbor, not a healthcare professional.
Knowing hands-only CPR can help keep blood flowing to the brain and vital organs until emergency responders arrive. Pairing CPR with the use of an AED, when one is available, gives someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest the best chance of survival.
You don't need a medical background to save a life. You just need the knowledge and confidence to act.
Take a few minutes to learn hands-only CPR, know where AEDs are located in your community, and encourage the people you love to do the same. The life you save could be someone closest to you.
