Recognizing February as American Heart Month. Recognizing February as American Heart Month.
AI Summary
This resolution officially recognizes February as American Heart Month in Indiana, aiming to raise awareness about cardiac arrest, a leading cause of death. It highlights the critical importance of immediate action, such as cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and the use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs), which can significantly increase survival rates. The resolution also addresses disparities, noting that women are less likely to receive CPR and encourages all Indiana residents to learn CPR, promote awareness of cardiac emergencies, and participate in efforts to create a "Nation of Lifesavers," where everyone is prepared to respond to a cardiac emergency.
