Did you know that 80% of people who die suddenly ( Sudden Cardiac Arrest ) die somewhere other than a hospital. It could be the supermarket, the street, mall, it can be anywhere. Only 7% of those people actually survive and go home, Why? Bystanders are reluctant to do anything but call 911, They are afraid of being sued, or catching the a disease and rightly so. As far as being sued you are protected under the good Samaritan law. But I don't want to do mouth to mouth that is gross and I might catch something. So don't, Whether or not you have taken CPR Just call 911 and push hard and fast on the middle of the chest to the song Staying Alive..... yes Staying Alive by the Bee Gee's. This will give this person the best chance for survival and maybe increase that 7%.
Come visit Safety 911 New England at the Northshore Mall in Peabody Ma . march 2 from 10 - 3. Free give aways and CPR.
