What's New

  Be the Beat

The challenge: Encourage at least one person in every household to learn the two simple steps of Hands-Only CPR.

 

Cardiovascular disease is the leading cause of the death in the United States, and every year, more than 350,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur. About 90% of people who suffer cardiac arrests outside of the hospital die. CPR, especially if performed immediately, can double or triple a cardiac arrest victim’s chance of survival.

 

“With 70% or nearly three out of four cardiac arrests happening at home, odds are the person who needs CPR will be a family member or friend.
