If someone you love goes into cardiac arrest, knowing how to perform CPR can double and even triple their odds of survival. It only takes 2 steps to help save a life: 👉 1. Call 911. 👉 2. Push hard and fast in the center of the chest until help arrives. Cardiac arrest happens when we least expect it. Are you ready to save the life of someone you love? #CPR #HandsOnlyCPR #AHA http://spr.ly/6044jGQYg

What an amazing weekend at the NFL Draft! Jessica Day, a kindergarten teacher from Battle Creek, Michigan, representing the American Heart Association, announced the Los Angeles Rams’ 5th-round draft pick. Mrs. Day’s class won the 2023 NFL PLAY 60 and American Heart Association Race to the Super Bowl, promoting active, healthy lifestyles to improve mental and physical health. 🏈 ❤️ We also brought the Nation of Lifesavers Mobile CPR Unit to Detroit to teach the lifesaving skill of Hands-Only CPR to fans at the NFL Draft Experience. Through the Nation of Lifesavers movement, supported by the NFL, our goal is to double cardiac arrest survival rates by 2030 by making sure more of us are prepared to act in a cardiac emergency. 🙌
