Free CPR Training Save-a-Life Saturday

Interested
in learning CPR? Now’s your chance! Join our free hands-only training event on Save-a-Life Saturday, which looks to be the largest one ever held in Snohomish County!


Why
should you learn it?


According
to The American Heart Association, eighty-eight percent of all

sudden heart attacks occur at home and knowing CPR can double a victim’s

chances of survival. Despite these odds, statistics show that only one-third of
victims receive CPR right away.

Save-a-Life Saturday is a perfect CPR training event for families, as hands-only
CPR training is far more likely to be used with a family member or co-worker
than with a perfect stranger.


Participants
can register online at www.redcross.org/news/event/wa/everett/Save-a-Life-Saturday
or over the phone at 425-740-2323.
