CPR Training: Be prepared to Respond in a Cardiac Emergency!



There’s a saying – home is where the heart is.

It is sadly ironic, because it’s also very true with respect to the statistic covering cardiac arrest and heart attack cases.

Most of them occur at home.

The reason it’s sad is because you are less likely to die of cardiac arrest  else. In a mall, airport or on the street there’s a better chance that someone can save your life by administering CPR.

When your family member is having a seizure or cardiac arrest, you can call 911 almost immediately, but that may not be good enough. Once this type of medical disaster strikes – minutes and even seconds are crucial to the outcome. Does the victim live or die, and if they live, will he or she recover fully or partially? Those fleeting moments of oxygen loss may result in brain injury and loss of speech, motoric functions, and more.

The only thing that can guarantee the damage is truly minimized is to have someone at home who knows first aid and cpr training procedures. If your loved one is having a cardiac arrest, it is imperative to act fast.
