RICHMOND, Va – Michelle Gossip, ARTIC Program Coordinator from VCU Health gave a hands-only CPR demonstration today LIVE in our studio. June 1st – 7th is CPR Awareness Week with hands-only CPR demos have been happening all week at area businesses. She said anyone can perform hands-only CPR and there are only two steps:
- Call 9-1-1 if you see a teen or adult suddenly collapse
- Push hard and fast in the center of the chest until professional help arrives.
The American Heart Association’s Richmond Heart Walk is scheduled for Saturday, October 6th at Innsrook.
