Save a Life -- From Dru Horenstein
Save A Life -- From Dru Horenstein
On December 7, my 26 year old son who is now fine was saved by someone who was not afraid to help. He collapsed with sudden cardiac arrest at a gym while working out in Seattle. The assistant manager immediately did two things: called 911 and began chest compressions.
This is all you have to do when someone collapses like he did. You don’t need special training. All you need to do is two-handed chest compressions, at 100 a minute, hard and fast in the center of the chest until the paramedics come. This will keep the blood and oxygen flowing.
Please practice saying this right now: call 911, begin chest compressions, hard and fast in center of chest.
Thank you.
