Get CPR/AED certified – and be prepared for the moments that matter. CPR certification classes that can help you provide assistance when someone is faced with a cardiac or breathing emergency.
There are two goals when it comes to learning CPRAED. First, it helps you recognize the signs that someone actually needs help, and second, it prepares you to Spring Into Action when minutes matter. High quality CRP can be a lifesaving tool that keeps someone alive until help arrives. The cardiac arrest out-of-hospital chain of survival shows the steps necessary to take in order to improve chances of survival from cardiac arrest. For every minute without intervention, the chance of survival drops for a person experiencing sudden cardiac arrest. CPR can significantly improve someone’s chance of surviving when bystanders Spring Into Action.
