Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month

October is Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month - Be Prepared, Save a Life


October is designated as Sudden Cardiac Arrest Awareness Month, and for good reason. According to the American Red Cross, more than 350,000 people in the U.S. every year experience an out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest. Tragically, about 90% of them die. What’s more, over 70% of those events happen in the home.
