The Importance of CPR Training

March 10, 2014 By Theresponseinsti

According to the American Heart Association, 70% of Americans can feel helpless to act during a cardiac emergency. This helplessness is often attributed to lack of education or knowledge. CPR, or Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation can help provide victims the extra time needed to survive until an emergency medical technician (EMT) arrives.  88% of cardiac arrests happen at home, which is why it’s so important that we’re all equipped with the knowledge that could potential help save the life of someone we love.

Why is CPR Training Important?

You can save a life – with 88% of cardiac arrests occurring in the home, chances are learning CPR can help you save a spouse, child, parent or loved one.

You can help prevent unnecessary deaths – CPR provided immediately after sudden cardiac arrest can double or even triple a victim’s chance of surviving such an event.

CPR training prepares you for a variety of emergency situations – CPR classes can arm you with the skills and training necessary to assist someone who is drowning, suffocating, or choking. A CPR training class gives you the skills to help you to respond effectively to a multitude of medical emergencies.

Any CPR is better than no CPR – attempting to provide resuscitation is better than not attempting at all.
