Happy Friday - 13 Reasons to learn CPR, First Aid & AED at HealthPro


Happy Friday…here are 13 Reasons to learn CPR, First Aid and AED at HealthPro

1) CPR saves lives!

2) HealthPro offers convenient times, on-line hassle-free scheduling and courses taught by healthcare professionals

3) CPR and AED learning programs taught by our experienced and friendly HealthPro staff, help increase survival rates by training people (you) to respond quickly

4) Sadly, most people don’t survive a cardiac arrest – 4 to 6 minutes is the window of opportunity for someone to act before it’s too late, but fewer than one-third of cardiac arrest victims get CPR from someone nearby.  With the skills taught at HealthPro, you will have the tools necessary to help a victim in need

5) Choking is the #1 cause of unintentional deaths in infants – courses taught at HealthPro Education and Certification can make it possible for anyone to learn how to relieve a choking infant and perform CPR.

6) HealthPro offers same day certification cards

7) Over 200,000 people die of Sudden Cardiac Arrest every year, 50,000 of those deaths yearly could be prevented

8) 80% of Cardiac Arrests happen in the home – HealthPro courses can teach you how to save someone close to you

9) Once the heart stops beating, brain death occurs in 4 to 6 minutes. Performing CPR provides oxygen to the brain and other vital organs to give the victim the best chance of full recovery after EMS takes over. If CPR is given within the first four minutes of a cardiac arrest, the chances of survival double.

10) Only 6.4% of Cardiac Arrest Victims survive because people witnessing the incident do not know CPR

11) For Every minute that an AED is unavailable, the victim has a 10% less chance of survival

12) You will gain confidence, knowing how to react when someone is having a heart attack

13) You will be smarter – by the end of your course at HealthPro, you’ll know more than you did when you started
