Every year, thousands of people experience sudden cardiac arrest outside of a hospital. When that happens, every second matters.
The good news? You don't have to be a medical professional to save a life.
Would you recognize a cardiac arrest emergency?
Someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest may:
• Collapse suddenly
• Be unresponsive
• Not be breathing normally
• Only gasp for air
If you suspect cardiac arrest:
1️⃣ Call 911
2️⃣ Start Hands-Only CPR
3️⃣ Send someone to get an AED
Fast action can double or even triple a person's chance of survival.
🤲 Hands-Only CPR is easier than many people think.
If an adult suddenly collapses:
✔ Call 911
✔ Push hard and fast in the center of the chest
✔ Continue until help arrives
Aim for a rate of 100–120 compressions per minute.
⚡ AEDs are designed for everyday people to use.
An Automated External Defibrillator (AED):
• Provides step-by-step voice instructions
• Analyzes the heart rhythm
• Delivers a shock only if needed
You cannot accidentally shock someone unless the AED determines it is appropriate.
AEDs are commonly found in schools, airports, community centers, gyms, and many public buildings.
❤️ Most cardiac arrests happen at home.
That means the person who needs CPR may be:
• A spouse
• A parent
• A grandparent
• A friend
• A neighbor
Emergency responders do incredible work, but they can't be everywhere instantly. The first person on scene is often an everyday citizen.
📍 Do you know where the nearest AED is located?
Take a few minutes today to identify AED locations at:
• Your workplace
• Your gym
• Your child's school
• Community facilities you visit regularly
Knowing where to find an AED before an emergency happens can save valuable time when every second counts.
Preparedness starts before an emergency ever occurs.
Learn CPR. Know where AEDs are located. Be ready.
Because saving a life may someday depend on you.
❤️ You could be someone's lifesaver.

To close out this EMS Week, last but not least, introducing:
Paramedics Julie, Jen, and Paramedic/Chief Kris.

Julie- A shift:

Hello my name is Julie I’ve been a paramedic with the good neighbor city for 17 years. It is an honor and privilege to serve the community of Middleton. When I’m not working you will find me hanging with family and friends traveling, hiking or fishing.

Jen- B shift/OIC:

Hello Middleton! My name is Jennifer Sellek and I am proud to serve the City of Middleton; we truly have a wonderful community! I became a volunteer for Middleton EMS in 1997. Then, in 2001, I was fortunate to be hired as a full-time paramedic and have enjoyed providing emergency medical care to the residents and visitors of our beautiful City and surrounding area ever since. I grew up in several states along the East coast, Hawaii, and Louisiana as my father served in the military and then moved to Middleton 33 years ago. When I'm not working, I enjoy hiking with my husband and dogs, motorcycling, horseback riding, reading, and crocheting.

Chief Kris O’Dell:

My name is Kris O’Dell, and I am the proud EMS Chief here at Middleton EMS. It is truly an honor to stand alongside this incredible team as we work every day to provide compassionate, expert-level medical care to our community.
One of the greatest gifts of this role has been watching our team bring their passion and ambition to life through initiatives such as community outreach and the collaborative development of our own Training Center, which will provide lifesaving education throughout our community.
Meet My Family: The center of my universe
We celebrate all seasons in our family! In the summer, we spend a lot of time on the lakes, and in the winter, you can usually find us on the ski slopes. We also love hiking through our national parks and spending quality time together wherever the adventure takes us.
Thank you to our staff, our families, and our community for your continued support during EMS Week and every week.

EMS Week is upon us, so we take this opportunity to thank our staff and all who serve in emergency medical services🚑

This year’s theme is “Improving Outcomes, Together.” This statement reaches far beyond the calls alone. Improving outcomes is an oath taken by every provider to push for the very best in all aspects of emergency medicine. This means providing outreach and resources to those who feel stuck. Training alongside our physicians to review cases and be prepared for anything that enters our ambulance. Pushing for mental health resources that protect our providers and allow them to give the best of themselves to those in need.

We see your sleepless nights, we see your missed holidays with loved ones, we see the weight you lift from strangers and carry home to your families. You step up to make sure the lights are always on for anyone who feels alone. EMS is stronger because of the men and women who serve in this field, and we thank you for your dedication. 💙

🚨🚨Happy EMS Week to all🚨🚨

So proud to be part of such a supportive community💙
