American Heart Association will teach Hands-Only CPR at Buffalo Bills Training Camp

The American Heart Association and the Buffalo Bills are teaming up to save lives. As part of a collaboration to increase CPR awareness in the community, the American Heart Association will be offering Hands-Only CPR training at Buffalo Bills Training Camp, held July 26 through August 10 at St. John Fisher University, 3690 East Avenue, Rochester (Dorsey Lot/Interactive Area). Trainings will be available during operational hours each practice day.

With nearly three out of four cardiac arrests outside of the hospital occurring in homes, knowing how to perform CPR is critically important . CPR, especially if performed immediately, could double or triple a cardiac arrest victim’s chance of survival.

Training camp attendees will be able to use the new mobile CPR kiosk, sponsored by UR Medicine, to learn and practice Hands-Only CPR and get feedback on compression and speed quality.
