Heart Healthy Series ~ Compressions Only CPR

I can honestly say that I have never had to use the CPR training that I have had in the past.  *knock on wood*

Luckily, my friends at One Beat CPR, South Florida's premier CPR training center, are there to offer up tips and tricks to remember when the need should arise....

Compression only CPR is CPR without mouth-to-mouth breaths.  It is recommended for use by people who see a teen or adult suddenly collapse in an "out of hospital" setting (such as at home, work, or in a park).

There are only 2 easy steps:

  • Call 9-1-1 (or send some to call)
  • Push hard and fast in the center of the chest.

Now you have no excuse...you can save lives!
