About the event
Learning cardiopulmonary rescusitation (CPR) saves lives. There are several techniques for administering CPR, but the most common technique involves chest compressions combined with rescue breaths. CPR allows for the individual to help breathe for a patient (or victim). Compressions help to encourage the heart into a natural normal rhythm, while the rescue breaths provide live-saving oxygen when indivudals are not breathing independently. CPR buys time and helps improve survival. Administering CPR provides the life-saving aid to resuscitate patients, allowing EMS teams to respond with more intense intervention and care management.
