Will you be ready to save the life of someone you love? Learn more and find a CPR class at heart.org/nation.  #NationofLifesavers #HeartMonth

Currently 90% of people who experience cardiac arrest outside of a hospital die, in part because they do not receive CPR more than half of the time.

For more information go to heart.org/nation #NationofLifesavers #HeartMonth
