Preparedness isn’t just a word—it’s a mindset. As we mark National Preparedness Month, it’s the perfect time to remind ourselves that being ready can save lives. Whether it's knowing basic first aid, CPR, or just having an emergency plan in place, small steps make a huge difference. Let’s commit to being proactive rather than reactive when it comes to safety and well-being. Take this opportunity to equip yourself, your family, and your workplace for the unexpected! #nationalpreparednessmonth #safetyfirst #CPRTraining #BeReady #FirstAidMatters https://lnkd.in/geumE5nX
This is why you should know CPR. Over 300,000 cardiac arrests happen outside a hospital every year. Providing CPR as soon as possible can help give someone the best chance of survival. #NationalPreparednessMonth

At 34, Danielle Easley, a single mom of three, had a stroke. She was told by her medical team at the hospital that she would never walk, talk or be able to take care of herself again. Upon arrival at our rehabilitation hospital in Parkersburg, West Virginia, she couldn't do any of those things. She required a Hoyer lift to get out of bed and could not complete a simple task such as scratching her nose. With dedication and hard work, Danielle beat the odds. She never gave up and pushed herself beyond measure. Danielle was known by everyone at our hospital, even other patients. She was an inspiration to us all and the definition of success. At discharge, she proudly walked out of the hospital with a walker. We are so proud of you, Danielle! Thank you for trusting us with your care.
