According to the American Heart Association, there are more than 356,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests annually in the US. Nearly 90% are fatal. Timely, quality CPR can lower these numbers and save lives.
In 2015, 7,037 children suffered out-of-hospital cardiac arrest across the US. Learning pediatric CPR can give these children a second chance at life.
According to Harvard Health, only 18% of Americans are up to date on CPR training. Even if you have received CPR training in the past, AHA recommends retraining, and certifications expire, every two years.
