• You will be able to recognize the symptoms of a heart attack.

• Victims of out-of-hospital cardiac arrest who receive CPR from bystanders are more than twice as likely to survive as victims who do not receive CPR.
• You will be able to initiate the "chain of survival" that will deliver oxygen rich blood to victim's vital organs until help arrives.
