CPR Choice founders spent the day learning about the new CPR guidelines at the AHA Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC) Educational Conference in Birmingham, Alabama. Many topics were discussed from lighthearted learning and teaching principles to the future direction of the AHA with regard to CPR program updates. One very interesting talk delved deep into the science behind CPR. This conference was not one to miss!

Healthy Living Expo 2016 Time! We reserved two booth spaces this year to give you more room to brush up on your CPR skills – especially practicing giving adequate compressions by “pushing down good” on the CPR dummies. 🙂
In addition, we’ll be providing free blood pressure checks and playing a little Jeopardy – CPR Choice style.

CPR Choice is featured on the local news station, WBIR. Cheryl Smith reviews basic tips for staying heart healthy and encourages viewers to visit us at the Healthy Living Expo for free blood pressure checks.
Additionally, the public is invited to a FREE CPR Class offered each day of the expo at 2 PM.
Also, Cheryl spends a moment to discuss and demonstrate the updated CPR methodology for the lay person, which prioritizes providing adequate chest compressions. #pushdowngood

AHA New CPR Guidelines! The new CPR guidelines have been released.
“The new rate of chest compressions is 100 to 120 compressions, or pushes, per minute, compared to “at least 100” in previous guidelines, according to the American Heart Association.
For adolescents and adults, a rescuer should push down at least 2 inches, but no more than 2.4 inches on the chest, compared to at least 2 inches in previous guidelines.”
