Moms, did you know that nearly 300,000 out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrests occur annually, and four out of five cardiac arrests happen at home? That means the life you save with CPR is most likely to be someone you love. Heart disease is still the #1 killer in women. That’s why Go Red For Women® is asking women to Make It Their Mission to help save a life with CPR. Anyone can learn CPR and we all need to team together and learn it. You just never know when the time will come and you could save someone’s life.
Go Red for Women has put together a fantastic instructional video to teach us how to do CPR. Take just a couple minutes of your time this week and watch the video. Two simple steps will help save a person’s life.
Not enough people act when they see someone suddenly collapse and this leads to unnecessary deaths.
– Only 32 percent of cardiac arrest victims get CPR from a bystander.
– Sadly, 93 percent of cardiac arrest victims don’t survive to make it home from the hospital.
Please take the time watch the video and share with all your family and friends. Together we can save lives!
