VIDEO CLIP: SPHA Hosts CPR Demonstration for Jordan Park Youth
ST. PETERSBURG, FL - The St. Petersburg Housing Authority (SPHA) had a fantastic time hosting special guest Courtney Burt from the American Heart Association at the Jordan Park After School Program on February 22, 2024. Courtney educated the youth about cardiac arrest and heart attacks, and conducted a Hands-Only CPR demonstration. The kids took turns practicing on the dummy while jamming to "Staying Alive." They did an excellent job!
Did you know that studies have shown Hands-Only CPR is as effective as conventional CPR with breaths in the first few minutes of a cardiac arrest? Learn the 2 Steps to Save a Life: https://cpr.heart.org/en/cpr-courses-and-kits/hands-only-cpr
