Nearly half a million Americans die from cardiac arrest every year – and the bulk of those cardiac arrests happen outside the hospital. If CPR is administered immediately, it can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival. With numbers like that – why isn’t EVERYONE certified in CPR? Why don’t we make this more of a priority?
More than 70% of CPR is administered at home. Followed by 15% in a public space. So this is really something families should be talking about – you’re most likely to need to give CPR to a family member or close friend in your home – not a stranger. This episode walks us through the reasons why you need CPR and AED training.
