The Benefits of CPR in the Workplace

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/the-benefits-of-cpr-in-the-workplace/].

The average person spends approximately 90,000 hours of their lifetime at work.

When you take that average, and add it to the fact that the number one leading cause of death for adults in the United States is heart disease, it drastically increases the likelihood of suffering a heart attack while at work.

Heart attacks aren’t the only danger, accidents can happen anytime and anywhere.

One of the best emergency trainings that companies can provide their employees is CPR and First Aid.

Providing CPR training in Los Angeles for your employees is not very costly and most importantly will go a long way in ensuring workplace health and safety.

Benefits include:

First Aid and CPR helps save lives and empowers employees in the workplace.

Increased survival rates. The longer the body goes without circulation, the lower chance of survival. By performing CPR, you are able to help keep the person’s blood circulating until an ambulance arrives and more advanced tools can be used. The chances of surviving a sudden cardiac arrest increase significantly (more than double) when CPR is started immediately.

All employees become more safety conscious which promotes a safer work environment.

Your employees are equipped with skills that they can use anywhere. Employers should feel proud knowing their employees are capable of helping others around them in an emergency.

It shows employees that the company cares for their health and wellbeing. This will produce happier and more productive employees overall. We all like to know that our employer has our best interest in mind.

It is not the best idea to think about implementing first aid training after an incident occurs. Preventative measures are the best way to ensure that in case of an emergency, you are prepared to deal with the situation accordingly

The Importance of CPR Training for Your Family

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/the-importance-of-cpr-training-for-your-family/].

There are many of us today who are not only raising our children, but also caring for our aging parents as well.

It’s called the Sandwich Generation, and according to the US Census Bureau, the number of older Americans (65 and older) will double by the year 2030. This will mean a full house for many of us.

Although having aging adults in the home along with small children can provide a very loving and nurturing environment, it also comes with some additional concerns.

The seniors may not be aware of items that could be considered choking hazards which increases the risk of choking for any small children in the home. They could have an unsteady gait, which increases the risk of falls. Many seniors also take medications that could easily be dropped on the floor and that increases the risk of accidental poisoning for the children.

These are some of the reasons why CPR and First Aid Training is so important for the whole family. Having a full home requires some planning and preparation. Being aware of the dangers is the first step to being adequately prepared; hence, providing the safest possible environment for our loved ones.

We want to be able to act quickly if someone is choking, suffers a cardiac arrest, or stops breathing. The best way to be prepared is to learn CPR. Anyone can learn CPR and everyone should. You will be equipped to help those you love, and you will feel confident in an emergency. You will also inspire others around you to get certified as well. Knowing CPR is definitely something to brag about! According to the American Heart Association (2017), more than 380,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur annually with 88 percent happening in the home. Effective bystander CPR can triple the chances of survival. No parent wants to think about their child choking or ever needing to perform CPR on anyone. However, in an emergency situation, you could have the ability to restore breathing or circulation for someone until emergency personnel arrive. Those precious moments are so important. They increase the chances of survival by more than 40 percent! If you have been searching for CPR training in Los Angeles, look no further. At LifeSaver Team CPR we have experienced trainers, comprehensive classes, and we follow the guidelines of the American Heart Association. It’s easy to learn and the classes are fun. For further information or questions about our programs please contact LifeSaver Team at 818.687.7283 or visit www.LifeSaverTeamCPR.com to learn more.

8 Facts About Heart Attacks and Why You Should Become CPR Certified

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/8-facts-about-heart-attacks-and-why-you-should-become-cpr-certified/].

What if you had the chance to save a life, but didn’t know what to do when the time came? CPR training in Los Angeles arms one with the knowledge and skills they need to act and help save a life when needed whether it be a loved one or a stranger.

Consider these facts about heart attacks:

Annually, more than one million people have a heart attack in the United States, resulting in 500,000 deaths.

Heart disease is the leading cause of death among both men and women.

50% of people die within one hour after suffering a heart attack outside of a hospital.

Cardiovascular diseases claim more lives than all forms of cancer combined

Women under age 50 are twice as more likely to die of a heart attack than men of the same age.

More than 200,000 heart attacks happen to people who have already had at least one previous heart attack.

High blood pressure, smoking and high cholesterol are the three biggest risk factors for heart disease. About one-half of all Americans have at least one of these three risk factors.

According to the American Heart Association, only about 30 percent of Americans are trained in CPR.

While these facts are alarming, the life-saving benefits of CPR are gaining greater awareness. With a bill recently passed in law in California, beginning in 2018-19 school year, students will be required to learn CPR in the hopes they will one day be able to save a life. With the passage of this law, California is now the 35th state to require CPR education in schools.

That’s important news, but it still means that untold numbers of people can still do their part to ensure a more life-saving and enriched community by making it a priority to become CPR certified.

Heart attacks are a big health problem, and while they can’t always be prevented, with appropriate CPR training, one has the ability and skill set to save another.

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit[https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/6-benefits-of-first-aid-and-cpr-training/].

In a big metropolitan area like Los Angeles, you’re going to interact with countless people every day and will be in close proximity as you go about your business.

The vast majority of these interactions will be routine, but sometimes a medical emergency will arise, and if you’re prepared, you can take a potential tragedy and turn it into a life saving event.

Beyond the potential to save a life, taking first aid and CPR training classes in Los Angeles are well worth it for many reasons.

Here are some for you to consider:

You’ll be a more valuable employee.

Aside from the fact that it looks good on a resume, knowing first aid and CPR shows a commitment to caring about others, a trait that is always valued by employers.

You’ll be a better parent.

Nothing is more important than doing everything we can to take care of our families. Knowing how to handle accidents and medical issues at home and when you’re out and about with other family members and friends will give you an important added level of peace of mind.

Training helps to ensure that you’ll administer first aid and CPR the right way.

If you don’t know what you’re doing in a medical emergency, you may actually be making a situation worse instead of better.

Getting certified has never been easier.

With the advent of online training, it’s now possible to take classes from the comfort of your own home, learning the same materials adhered to by organizations such as the Red Cross.

Training actually can reduce the number of accidents before they happen.

Why Everyone Should Be CPR Certified and First Aid Trained

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/why-everyone-should-be-cpr-certified-and-first-aid-trained/].

It’s a beautiful summer afternoon; your entire family and friends are over enjoying a Sunday barbeque. The grill is fired up, the kids are running through sprinklers and the pool is a cool relief against the sun’s rays. It’s the quintessential perfect day…right until your friend Steve jumps of the diving board and hits his head before going under the water. Panic ensues. The actions you take in the following minutes could decide Steve’s life.

CPR is used in the event of a heart attack or a near drowning where someone’s breathing or heartbeat has stopped and learning it is a must for everyone. The chest compressions and rescue breathing used during CPR keeps oxygenated blood flowing to the brain and other vital organs until medical help arrives to restore a normal heartbeat. If the heart stops, the lack of oxygenated blood can cause brain damage within minutes and death quickly after.

You never know when an accident will arise; whether it’s a family member, a friend, or a random strange—knowing CPR gives you the capability to save a life. 25% of all emergency rooms visits could be avoided if CPR was used immediately after an accident or heart attack.

When it comes to First Aid training and CPR certification, the best choice in the Los Angeles area is The Life Saver Team. The Life Saver Team is committed to helping individuals learn CPR and takes pride in passing on this life-saving skill. We offer comprehensive and practice-filled classes with real-world situations taught by experienced professionals. We follow guidelines set by the American Heart Association and offer classes to all individuals, young and old.

Luckily, you took a CPR and First Aid training class with the Life Saver Team just weeks before your Sunday barbeque. After fishing Steve out of the water, you were successfully able to deliver CPR and give mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. Steve is alive, well and still coming to Sunday barbeques thanks to you and the skills passed on to you by the Life Saver Team.

5 Situations Where CPR Training Can Save Lives

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/5-situations-where-cpr-training-can-save-lives/].

Anyone considering CPR training in Los Angeles should know that 92% of people who experience cardiac arrest die before they make it to a hospital. Knowing how to help with basic CPR skills usually triples a person’s chances of survival, and you never know when help may be needed. Here are five situations where knowing CPR skills could save a life.

1. At Home with an Elderly Family Member

According to the American Heart Association, 88% of cardiac arrests (outside of hospitals) happen at home. That means you are most likely to help a family member when CPR certified. Often, victims show no signs of an impending attack and lead healthy lives.

2. At the Gym

Another place where cardiac arrest is common is at the gym. Spinning classes and other strenuous activities can lead to cardiac arrest when someone is not aware of a heart condition. A quick response is crucial, and you can be prepared by being CPR certified.

3. In the Workplace

Sometimes, there are no warning signs for cardiac arrest. Coworkers may be simply going about their business in the office when they lose consciousness and stop breathing. In every workplace, someone should be prepared with CPR skills.

4. Students

Cardiac arrest endangers every race and age group in the population, including young students. If you supervise children in any class or sport activity, knowing how to respond to an emergency could be the difference between life and death.

5. Anytime

Because no one plans to have a heart attack or stroke, situations arise every day on the street where someone needs medical attention. Whether riding public transportation, walking down the street or taking your children to the park, your help may be needed.

CPR training gives you the tools to save lives in a number of situations. Find out how easy it is to learn these lifesaving skills today. For further information or review our class schedules please visit www.LifeSaverTeamCPR.com or contact us at (818) 687-7283.

The Warning Signs of a Cardiac Arrest

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/the-warning-signs-of-a-cardiac-arrest/].

When it comes to saving lives, possessing the relevant knowledge and skills is paramount. Knowing the warning signs can make the difference of life and death. In this article, we focus on the signs of cardiac arrest.

1. Chest discomfort

People experience a significant level of discomfort such as feeling of tightness, difficulty in breathing, swelling or pain in chest before a heart attack. This unpleasant feeling may come and go before the attack so if a loved complains about discomfort in their chest please be extra cautious and take he or she to see a professional as soon as possible.

2. Shortness of breath

Shortness of breath is another fundamental symptom that precedes a cardiac arrest. If a friend or colleague suddenly begins to wheeze heavily or gasp for air then be alert to the risk of a cardiac arrest.

3. Feeling dizzy or light-headed

Some people report feeling dizzy or light-headed prior to a cardiac arrest. This symptom on its own can point to a number of causes, but if this is followed by loss of consciousness then it could very well be a cardiac arrest.

It’s worth mentioning here that the symptoms of a panic attack (a stress-related but relatively harmless condition) often closely resemble a cardiac arrest. However, when dealing with ones livelihood, it is always better to be safe than sorry. Act decisively and take them to the nearest hospital for emergency treatment. It may be a false alarm, but that’s OK. If fainting or a loss of consciousness ensues you can apply your verifiable CPR skills immediately.

Why Online CPR Training is Not of Value

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/why-online-cpr-training-is-not-of-value/].

There are many reasons why one would to be CPR certified. It could be that you want a job where CPR certification is required or you may just want the peace of mind that comes with knowing that you are prepared for emergencies. Whatever the reason may be for your desire to certified, it is very important to make sure that you get proper training via a course that actually equips you with the skills that you will need to accurately provide CPR.

Since CPR courses are one of the most commonly sought types of medical training, you will find that there are a lot of websites that offer training and certification without ever having to leave your home. To many consumers this may seem like a great idea and a great value, but the buyer should beware. These classes don’t really deliver on what they promise and you may spend your time and money and not get what you expected.

The first thing that an individual should understand is that you cannot really learn CPR online. Sure, you can learn about the techniques that are used and see how another individual applies them, but real CPR training requires hands-on practice with an experienced instructor.

Basically, what you get from an online CPR certification course is an hour or so of watching videos and possibly a questions and answers test that takes a few minutes. At the end of this, they let you download and print a certification card that looks official. Whether the skills to actually perform CPR have been provided to the student and whether an employer will actually accept the certification are a different story all together.

The solution to this problem is to seek training from an instructor that offers courses that are approved by a reputable organization. These would include groups like the American Red Cross, the American Heart Association, the National Safety Council and the American Safety & Health Institute. Instructors that are certified by these organizations are ones capable of successfully training students and helping them with skill set necessary to help others in need.

The LifeSaver Team offers American Heart Association authorized CPR certification in Los Angeles. That means our students get real CPR training that is based on the most up to date science. Along with having the CPR training that could help you to save lives, you also get certification from the AHA, which is accepted by employers that require CPR certification.

Group CPR Training Makes Your Company Stronger

This was originally published on our website. To check out more of our content, visit [https://blog.lifesaverteamcpr.com/group-cpr-training-makes-your-company-stronger/].

There are many reasons why CPR training in Los Angeles makes sense. Since most emergencies take place in the home, anyone with certification has the chance to save the life of a loved one. When you offer CPR classes to your company, you can pass on these valuable lessons to your team while building a bond between employees.

Preparing to Save Lives

Learning CPR and other life-saving techniques prepares you to respond to emergencies. Whether your team includes employees of advanced age or heavy smokers, there is a chance someone in your office will be required to help someone whose heart has stopped beating. It can be a scary situation.

When your employees learn CPR, there is a certain comfort level around the office. Everyone knows there is a better chance of living to make it to the hospital when you go through CPR training. Normally, chest compressions are enough to keep someone breathing until doctors take over the job. This crucial life-saving tool is part of every CPR class.

Building the Bond Between Employees

Some companies have annual barbecues, holiday parties or retreats designed to build a bond among different departments and the workforce as a whole. These events do great things to cement the bond between office workers, but providing them with a CPR class on your company’s premises is even better.

First of all, you are telling your team members that they matter to you by offering them a chance to learn life saving techniques that will last a life time. Second, you are giving them a gift they can use at home. Statistics show that the overwhelming majority of people (90%) who suffer cardiac arrest do so at home.

When receiving CPR training in Los Angeles, your employees learn how to potentially help anyone anywhere. It is a wonderful gift to give your team and is guaranteed to strengthen the bond between employees on the job. For more information or inquiries, please visit www.LifeSaverTeamCPR.com or contact us at 818-687-7283. We look forward to hearing from you!

You may have previously considered getting CPR training in Los Angeles, but never got round to doing it. Learning CPR will help you to save lives, but this qualification offers many other side benefits. In this article, we share 5 reasons why you should consider becoming CPR certified.

1. Save Lives

CPR is a lifesaving tool. You never know when an emergency might arise. Imagine if it was a close friend or family member. What would you do? Being qualified in CPR can mean the difference between life and death sometimes.

2. Learn a New Skill

Learning any new skill is enjoyable and motivating. CPR is no exception. Whether you end up actually using your CPR skills or not, learning them thoroughly will drive personal growth.

3. Make New Friends

Taking a CPR training course can be quite a sociable experience. You will often get to know other interesting people and end up making some good friends as well!

4. Job Requirement

There are many jobs that require a working knowledge of CPR. Lifeguards and care providers are some common examples, but there are many other professional roles where this skill is considered useful.

5. Improve Your Resume

Even if CPR isn’t directly related to your job, many employers still value this qualification. Practically speaking, it is better to have employees with some knowledge of how to deal with life-threatening situations. But that’s not the only reason why a CPR qualification can improve your resume. Taking the time to learn CPR shows a genuine concern for other people – one strong indicator of a good team player.

The Holiday Season Is Upon Us

This time of year represents a cheerful season and plenty of celebration. Although many do not give possible danger during the holidays a second thought, we want to share with you some startling statistics that will help you become more aware of the potential dangers associated with the holiday season.

Holiday Toys

When it comes to the holidays, children take front and center with wish lists for Christmas. Consumer Product Safety Commission reports over 174,000 toy-related ER-treated injuries and the deaths of seven children under the age of 15 occurred in 2016. Unfortunately, toys with moveable or small parts can present a choking hazard to the little ones. Even the wrapping or packaging materials can be a danger to your child. It is imperative that preventative measures are taken to ensure that potentially harmful toys and products are not bought for your kids or family members.

Shoveling Snow

For those who receive significant snowfall during the winter months, shoveling snow a risk for many, especially males. According to Harvard Health, on average 100 men die as a result of cardiac arrest, with many more seeking emergency care for chest pain and other health issues related to shoveling snow. Research has shown that the deeper than snow,thehigher the risk. Falls and Burn Hazards

Falls and burns are other common holiday injuries that may require emergency treatment. Attempting to hang up holiday decorations accounts for over 10,000 fall injuries every year, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). During the holiday season one must be aware of the potential for burns, whether they result from decorations, candles or cooking a holiday feast. The National Fire Protection Association (NFPA) reports, “Thanksgiving is the leading day for home cooking fires, followed by Christmas Day and Christmas Eve, whereas, candle and decoration fires peak in December.”

Road Trips

Come the holidays, come car accidents, unfortunately. The statistics of lives lost every holiday season should be a poignant reminder of the fragility of life. Over the last several years, the U.S. Department of Transportationstates, “an average of 300 deaths result from drunk driving accidents within the week between Christmas and New Year. In 2016, 781 fatalities from drunk-driving crashes were reported in the month of December.” With an increase of drivers on the road, poor weather conditions, distracted and intoxicated driving, one must be very cautious and take every measure to be vigilant while driving; especially during the holiday season.

One of the best preventative measures one can take toensure the possible ways so you or a loved one does not become part of the statistics this holiday season, is to take Heart Saver First Aid classes or CPR training in Los Angeles.
