We want to help as many people as possible learn how to give someone a greater chance of survival when a heart attack occurs.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Learning hands-only CPR helps local emergency responders by focusing on the first few critical minutes following a cardiac arrest. Since the lungs and blood contain only enough oxygen to keep vital organs healthy for that amount of time, bystanders become heroes until emergency responders arrive on scene. With each chest compression using hands-only CPR, ordinary citizens can easily provide the ongoing blood flow needed to give the patient a much better chance of survival once responders arrive.<\/p>\n<p>Once trained, citizens are encouraged to download the PulsePoint app to receive notifications that someone nearby is in need of CPR. To learn more, visit the PulsePoint Foundation website at www.pulsepoint.org.\u00a0For more information about this upcoming training, contact Palmdale Regional&#8217;s Education Department at 661-382-5604.<\/p>\n<h6><em>[Information via news release from Palmdale Regional Medical Center.]<\/em><\/h6>\n<p>&#8211;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Palmdale Regional Medical Center will provide free hands-only CPR training on Sidewalk CPR Day, Monday, June 5, from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., in the hospital&#8217;s front main lobby.
