Description

Provide your audience with two simple steps on how to save a life with this pocket sized Hands Only CPR information card! Each card is an exact replica of the “Hands Only CPR” displays. Making it an easy companion piece to hand out after a presentation.

The handout explains that hands only CPR is Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation without mouth to mouth breaths. It is recommended for use by anyone who is untrained in traditional CPR and sees a person suddenly collapse. Hands only CPR has been proven just as effective as conventional CPR for cardiac arrest at home, at work or in public. It can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival.

The card then goes on to explain the two simple steps, which are:

• Step 1 – Call 9-1-1. Either your or another person on the scene call 9-1-1 and give them your location, ask for an ambulance and that you have a collapsed victim. Explains to always follow the instructions of the dispatcher.
• Step 2 – Push the chest. Explains the proper way to give chest compressions to an adult or teenaged victim

The tips section provides additional information and tips on how to properly give hands only CPR.

In conclusion, the card relays the message that Immediate Response Can Double A Person’s Chance of Survival.
