CPR and AEDs Could Save Lives | Bakersfield News

July 30 is Life Saver Day, and the American Heart Association is rallying Kern County to get ready—especially as kids head back to school. The focus? CPR and knowing where to find AEDs in public places like schools and workplaces. Dr. Jared Salvo explains these devices are super easy to use, even for kids, with step-by-step voice guidance. Without immediate help, cardiac arrest survival drops below 10%, but with CPR and a quick 911 call, survival rates can double or triple. This push is about empowering bystanders with confidence and awareness—because knowing CPR and where to find an AED could literally save a life.
