In the United States alone, more than 350,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur each year. The “Be a life saver” message aims to educate the community about hand-only CPR, so they can be empowered to save a life. Immediate, hands-only CPR can triple a person’s chance of survival in the event of cardiac arrest.
