CARDIAC READY COMMUNITY (CRC)

During a cardiac emergency, every second...every minute that passes without CPR or AED use can mean the difference between life and death. It can take the ambulance 30 minutes to respond in South Dakota's more remote areas. But in Mitchell, we are prepared and ready!

The Cardiac Ready Community (CRC) Program helps educate, equip, and empower local community members to be better prepared and more confident in helping someone experiencing a cardiac event before the ambulance arrives. Start the conversation in your community and help assemble a CRC Team!
