When it’s life or death, are you prepared?

A life-threatening emergency can happen in the blink of an eye and CPR training can make all the difference.

Prepare for the Unexpected

CurioVive Lifesaving Training was created to train and empower individuals to act quickly and appropriately in an emergency situation.

Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest Facts:

  • Each year EMS cares for more than 350,000 individuals in the United States experiencing a non-traumatic out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA). Approximately 90% of persons who experience an OHCA die.

  • Survival to hospital discharge from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA) after receiving treatment from emergency medical services (EMS) is less than 10% in the United States. (source)

  • Just over 70% of all out-of-hospital cardiac arrests happen in the home, so the life you may save could be a family member or a friend.

  • For the past 20 years, the survival rate for cardiac arrest has hovered around 10 percent for out-of-hospital incidences and 21 percent for in-hospital events, yet research shows that high-quality CPR has a significant impact on survival outcomes, whether inside or outside the hospital.

  • Survival chances decrease by 10% for every minute that immediate CPR and use of an AED is delayed.

  • Immediate CPR can triple the chance of survival.

Why Training Matters:

A recent American Red Cross survey of 2,000 U.S. adults age 18 and older revealed strong interest in First Aid, CPR, and AED training. The results confirmed that 4 out of every 10 adults have completed, or are interested in taking, a lifesaving course. Among those with prior training experience, 7 out of 10 want to refresh their skills.

The study concluded that individuals are motivated to train primarily because they want to be prepared and keep their families safe. The next largest reason was to keep their community safe. These individuals also expressed feeling helpless during emergencies and want to be better prepared.

For those adults who trained in CPR, AED, and First Aid, positive outcomes were reported: 69% felt more prepared, 63% felt more confident, and almost half were relieved because they had the skills to act when moments mattered.
