  It’s World CPR Month! 

Did you know that Hands-Only CPR can be just as effective as traditional CPR in the first few minutes after cardiac arrest — whether it happens at home, at work, or in public?

 It’s simple and It saves lives.

 2 Steps Can Save a Life:

  Call 123 "Egyptian Ambulance hotline" immediately if you see someone collapse.
  Push hard and fast in the center of the chest — to the beat of a song with 100–120 beats per minute

To celebrate World CPR Month, the Magdi Yacoub Heart Foundation International Training Centre, accredited by the American Heart Association, is taking action! Our team hit the streets of Aswan City  — from Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan to Nile Egyptian International School – Aswan Branch — sharing life-saving CPR knowledge and hands-on training with the community.

Together, we’re building lifesavers 

Special thanks to Sofitel Legend Old Cataract Aswan and Nile Egyptian International School – Aswan Branch for hosting our activities and supporting the World CPR Month celebrations.
