LEARN CPR….IT WILL SAVE A LIFE!!!!

February is American heart month. This awareness month hits really close to home. My Dad had a massive heart attack in March 2015. He was without a pulse for 52 mins and considered clinically dead. My dad was able to receive CPR very quickly and had multiple other things fall into place that ultimately saved his life. I am grateful to say he is alive and credit GOD and very quick first responders.

There is a lot of information on keeping your heart healthy by exercising and eating the right foods. However, I believe CPR should be also be on the list of being heart healthy. Statics show that if more people know CPR, more lives can be saved.

The American Heart Association has a great video and article about using hands only CPR. This method is very easy and provides a chance for immediate CPR to anyone. My dad is living proof that immediate CPR works!

While most of our caregivers at A Remedy Home Care are trained in CPR, we have set a goal to certify each and everyone in CPR.

So for the month of February take the time to learn hands free CPR because your actions can save a life like His!
