Public Service Announcement for CPR Awareness

When someone has a cardiac arrest, over 60 per cent of the time no one acts. The two major barriers to performing CPR are lack of sufficient training, and fear of doing something wrong. You cannot hurt someone who has suffered a sudden cardiac arrest, you can only help.The Chase Mceachern Act and the Good Samaritan Act protect you from liability in the duties of providing CPR.
If You Witness a Sudden Cardiac Arrest:
- Call 9‑1‑1 for the paramedics.
- Start CPR: Push hard and fast on the person’s chest 100-120 times per minute.
