What is CPR?

CPR is a life saver!

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) saves lives, it is really as simple as that. Wehn someone is having a heart attack the heart is no longer pumping blood. When the heart stops pumping blood, the person will die.

CPR is a combination of breathing and chest compressions that will bring the person through the heart attack, but keeping air in the lungs and blood moving through the body. Until help arrives and normal function can be restored.
