Below is the story of my #cardiacarrest and the heroic actions of those who saved me. Only 10% of the 350,000 Americans w cardiac arrests outside of hospitals survive- I teamed up with #aha21 to raise awareness about #cpr and #aed - we need to improve! 1/2 heart.org/en/news/2021/11/11…

The big move to the Pavilion would not be possible without our amazing Environmental Services team. EVS workers, like Jamella Lake and Lynette Kortue pictured here, are clearing out and cleaning up everything once patients are transported out.
