Put the Power to Save a Life in Your Hands
Each year, AMR focuses on teaching life-saving techniques to individuals in communities nationwide. During National Emergency Services Week, May 19-25, 2019, AMR is partnering with ACEP and IAFC to hold the World CPR Challenge. During this week-long event, thousands of people are trained in bystander-CPR.
The simple act of adminstering CPR can triple a Sudden Cardiac Arrest victim's chance of survival!
If you witness a collpase, take these three steps:
- Call 911
- Tell someone to find an AED
- Push hard and fast in the center of the chest until first responders arrive
Some of our locations will also be offering Stop the Bleed training demonstrating how to properly apply pressure and stop blood loss while waiting for emergency personnel to arrive.
EMS professionals hold events throughout the year to teach compression-only CPR and the ABC's of bleeding control. Be sure to review the chart below to find a free event in your local area.
