Cardiac Arrest vs Heart Attack
What is the difference between cardiac arrest and heart attack? Cardiac Arrest and Heart attack are often thought of as the same thing. But as you can see they are two separate issues with the heart. Both are medical emergencies that require immediate attention. If someone collapses, performing CPR in these moments could make the difference in saving their life.
Does your babysitter know CPR?
Does your babysitter know how to perform CPR or the Heimlich maneuver should an emergency arise? Nobody likes to think about it, but the reality is emergencies happen. Children can experience sudden medical emergencies such as choking, drowning, or cardiac arrest.
What is an AED?
An AED, Automated External Defibrillator, is the CTRL+ALT+DELETE for your heart. Think about how many times you have restarted your computer in an attempt to reset it and start over. If you are like me…..it is quite a few!
