Building and Mobilizing a Nation of Lifesavers Together: Employer Stories

Join the Nation of Lifesavers
The American Heart Association’s Nation of Lifesavers™ initiative aims to equip bystanders with the skills and confidence to act as lifesavers during a cardiac emergency. By empowering individuals to become vital links in the chain of survival, we can ensure that anyone, anywhere is prepared to administer CPR. The AHA’s CEO Roundtable — a leadership coalition of over 50 top CEOs representing a combined workforce of more than 13 million people — has been a driving force in this effort. The past two years, member companies have been actively enhancing employee CPR and AED education, awareness, and training across their organizations.
