Some CPR facts


Sudden Cardiac Arrest
kills more people every year than

  • Breast Cancer,

  • Prostate Cancer,

  • Homicide, and

  • Traffic 'Accidents' - COMBINED!!


What does a
sudden cardiac arrest
look like?

Hungarian international football player Miklos Feher
died on Sunday, January 25, 2004 as a consequence
of suffering a Sudden Cardiac Arrest during a match
with his club team, Benfica of Portugal.


And what do you
do about it?

This video is an excellent demonstration of what SLICC has been teaching for several years. If after watching the video you have any doubts about your ability to perform Compression-Only CPR, your ability to use an AED, your ability to save a choking person, or your ability to tell when someone is having a stroke, register for a class.


Hands-Only CPR Saves Lives

"Hands-Only" is a trademark
of the American Heart Association
  • How would you feel if your loved one dropped to the floor in cardiac arrest and you didn’t know what to do?

  • How would you feel if he or she died because you didn’t know CPR?

  • In sixty minutes we’ll teach you CPR, AED, Heimlich, and stroke recognition.
    Contact SLICC about special arrangements for large groups.

  • The life you save may be the life of someone you love.


And it's not only immediate CPR - it's widespread deployment of defibrillators.


If you see someone collapse - and one in seven of us will - Just follow the Chain of Survival.

           

It's easy for you to learn the first three

...and we can teach you how
in less than an hour!

  1. If they are not responsive,
    Call 911
  2. If they are not breathing,
    Immediately pump the chest hard and fast - and don't stop!
  3. If an AED becomes available,
    Defibrillate Promptly!
  4. When the ambulance arrives
    Let the ambulance crew take over - they'll know what to do.

Things YOU need to remember!
