Sidewalk CPR Day 2016

Description

It takes just 10 minutes to learn how to keep a cardiac arrest victim alive until paramedics arrive. Hands-Only CPR focuses on the first few minutes following a cardiac arrest, since the lungs and blood contain only enough oxygen to keep vital organs healthy for that amount of time.

You can learn Hands-Only CPR for free in your community on Sidewalk CPR Day, June 2, 2016, during National CPR Week. For the fifth year in a row, firefighters and medical professionals will provide free training at libraries, stores, community centers, fire stations, medical facilities and other convenient locations across Los Angeles County. No appointments are necessary; just show up at any convenient location at any time during the hours listed. Last year, thousands of people in Southern California learned how to save a life.
