Why should you know CPR? Cardiac Arrest is one of the leading causes of death in the United States. The chances of survival are greatly improved with quick recognition of cardiac arrest and early activation of the emergency response system. This includes initiating CPR and, if possible, defibrillation via an Automated External Defibrillator. Will you know how to help a loved one when seconds count?
