You don't have to be a healthcare professional to save a life. Learning CPR gives you the confidence and skills to respond during one of the most critical moments a person can face. Your willingness to act could give someone another chance at life.
Here are a few ways you can be prepared:
โ
Learn the basics of Hands-Only CPR ๐คฒ
โ
Call emergency medical services immediately when someone collapses ๐
โ
Start chest compressions if the person is unresponsive and not breathing normally โค๏ธ
โ
Encourage your family, friends, and coworkers to learn CPR ๐จโ๐ฉโ๐งโ๐ฆ
โ
Know where the nearest Automated External Defibrillator (AED) is located, if available โก
