In honor of , these local organizations are doing their part to help save lives with Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) on site and a Cardiac Emergency Response Plan (CERP) in place!

When someone collapses due to cardiac arrest, it's up to the people around them to call 911, start Hands-Only CPR and get an AED to give them the best chance of survival. The better equipped we are for an emergency, the more lives we can save! Thank you to CareOregon, Hoffman Construction Company and Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) for showing us what preparedness looks like! ❤️

Some hikes make you work for the view.

Others make you wonder why you've never visited before.

Dry Creek Falls near Cascade Locks is one of those hikes. It's not even marked on the trailhead sign. The trail winds up through towering evergreens and delivers everything people love about the Pacific Northwest: forest, fresh air and a waterfall that feels tucked away from the rest of the world.

The beautiful thing about this hike is how the reward starts long before you reach the falls. Every turn gives you another reason to keep going.

According to the American Heart Association, every bit of movement counts. It doesn't have to be intense to make a difference. Sometimes the best motivation is simply having somewhere beautiful to explore.

October is Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month When and seconds matter when it comes to saving the life of someone you love. If you see someone collapse and aren't breathing, it's time to call 911 and start pushing hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives.
