When you witness a sudden cardiac arrest, the actions you take in the first few minutes could make a lifetime of difference. Together, we can save more lives.
Check out the ILHR team talking about our latest paper on WTTW!
Chicagoans Are Dying From Cardiac Arrest at Younger Ages: UIC Study https://t.co/TemhoaJmzS
If anyone in Illinois is encountering this problem, give us a call! ILHR uses breasted manikins in *every single class* we teach, and we give them to our grantees to host their own trainings.
It took us weeks to find a first aid trainer who had a CPR training mannequin with breasts. We wanted our first aiders to learn correct CPR techniques when breasts are present, because our visitors are more likely to have breasts! A default training mannequin doesn't have breasts

Did you know that everyone is equipped with one of the most powerful life-saving tools available? It's your hands!
By learning CPR you can use your hands to pump blood and oxygen to a person's vital organs, keeping them alive until help arrives.😀
