What does choking have to do with CPR? If you can’t breathe, eventually your heart is going to stop. New guidelines emphasize the importance of clearing a blocked airway and explain why acting fast may prevent cardiac arrest. Here's what to know: https://t.co/DEzLyheOdf

Don’t rely on luck that someone else will know what to do in a cardiac emergency. Sudden cardiac arrest can happen anywhere, to anyone. Learning Hands-Only CPR takes just minutes, and it could help you save a life. Education and preparation are more reliable than luck.🍀❤️

⏰ Daylight Saving Time is this weekend! Research shows the time change may come with more than just lost sleep. Studies link the shift to a spike in heart attacks and strokes in the days that follow, likely due to disruptions in our circadian rhythm.
