While we all know Valentine’s day is focused on the heart, it’s important to remember that this whole month is actually devoted to heart health.
There are many things you can do to protect your heart including a healthful diet, exercise, and giving yourself loving kindness. A less talked about, but very important skill is ensuring you know how to administer CPR and properly utilize an AED. Bystander intervention can often be the difference between life or death for someone who is experiencing sudden cardiac arrest.
