Did you know? Your favorite songs can help save a life.
When performing CPR, aim for 100–120 beats per minute, that’s the same rhythm as songs like:

Stayin’ Alive – Bee Gees
Uptown Funk – Bruno Mars
Can’t Stop the Feeling! – Justin Timberlake

Which song would you choose? Keeping the beat helps deliver effective chest compressions. To learn more, take a Red Cross CPR and First Aid course by visiting redcross.org/takeaclass.

Knowing CPR is powerful, but knowing where to find an AED and how to use it can save a life in critical moments.

During CPR and AED Awareness week, take time this week to:
🔍 Locate the nearest AED at your workplace or in your community
📍 Make sure others know where it is
⚡ Learn how to use it with confidence

In an emergency, every second counts, and being prepared can make all the difference. The simple steps are easier than you think (check out the image in this post!).
