When someone has a cardiac arrest, every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces their chances of survival by at least 7-10%. Knowing how to perform CPR could help to save someone’s life. Having access to a defibrillator can improve survival rates by 50-70%.
The Creating Lifesavers team are therefore aiming to teach as many people as possible about the vital benefits of learning CPR skills and encouraging companies across the country to invest in life-saving defibrillators for their communities.
