Everybody should learn basic CPR skills!

I had the opportunity to teach Stayin’ Alive: Hands Only CPR today for Youth Symposium. The kids also learned about athletic training. I challenged them to look for AEDs in public places and to show their parents what they learned #communityservice #NATM2026 #awareness #sgrho1922

The @EmergencySports are on the go again. Getting ready with @strappatc to cover Junior World Championships for Aerials and Moguls for #usskiandsnowboard! Excited to be back on the course!

Emergency action planning is fundamental to the job. Athletic trainers rehearse and coordinate life-saving responses for cardiac events and spine injuries. #GamecockAT #NATM26

Hailey Wentz, a former East Carolina University student, is living proof that sudden cardiac arrest can happen to anyone – at any age. In February 2025, she experienced SCA. Because a trained athletic trainer was present and ready to respond, Hailey is here today to tell her story. Now she’s turning survival into purpose. Hailey partners with the American Heart Association and other heart health advocates to raise awareness and encourage others to become CPR certified. Her message is clear: preparation saves lives. Athletic trainers are often the first line of emergency care – trained, equipped and ready when the unthinkable happens. Hailey’s story is a powerful reminder that their expertise makes a life-changing difference. This National Athletic Training Month, we celebrate the athletic trainers whose training, vigilance and quick action truly mean everything. ❤️ #NATM2026 #CareYouCanCountOn #AthleticTraining #SuddenCardiacArrest #CPRSavesLives
