Witnessing a sudden cardiac arrest (SCA) can be a startling experience. Take a moment today to familiarize yourself with the warning signs so you can be prepared to respond. Do you know the signs? ➡️ Victims of SCA may suddenly lose consciousness or already be unconscious when they are found.¹ ➡️ You may see them gasping for air, or they will have stopped breathing entirely.¹ ➡️ If you attempt to wake someone suffering from an SCA by shouting at or shaking them, they’ll remain unresponsive.¹ ➡️ SCA victims will have no pulse.¹ Sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, regardless of how old they are. Immediate action is the key to saving lives - that’s why knowing what to look for is so important. Spread awareness, save lives. #SCAAwarenessMonth #SuddenCardiacArrest #AED #CPR #CPRSavesLives
