Push hard and fast in the center of the chest
at a rate of at least 100 beats per minute.
Who even knows what 100 beats per minute sounds like?
("Stayin' Alive" by the Bee Gees)
♫ Well, you can tell by the way I use my walk
♫ I'm a woman's man
♫ No time to talk
♫ Music loud and women warm
♫ I've been kicked around
♫ Since I was born
♫ And now it's all right
Call 911--
And push hard and fast in the center of the chest
to the beat of "Stayin' Alive" until help arrives.
♫ Stayin' alive
♫ Ah, ha, ha, ha stayin' alive, stayin' alive
(upbeat instrumental music)
And remember to push to the beat of "Stayin' Alive."
♫ Ah, ha, ha, ha stayin' alive

Great job, everybody!
Each participant receives what I'm holding in my hand,
and this is a CPR take-home kit.
What they can do is take this kit home
and actually have family time.
You know how we do the movies,
or we have dinner together?
But they can also train each other CPR.

Every year, over 325,000 people will suffer
from cardiac arrest outside a hospital,
and 90% of those people die.
So what we're here to do today
is to obviously change that outcome,
improve those statistics, by teaching people bystander CPR.
