October is Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) Awareness Month. Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the leading causes of death in the United States, taking more than 356,000 lives each year, including over 23,000 young people under 18. It can happen without warning, which is why knowing the signs and how to respond is important. This month, we encourage everyone to take a moment to educate themselves and be prepared, because quick action can save lives. Reach out to your local Community Health Center if you are interested in learning more.
