The highlighted video features firsthand accounts from survivors, families, and speakers as they share their personal experiences of the CARES program. The intent is to help engage and educate emergency care professionals, key decision-makers, and the larger resuscitation community about the program’s influence. Our goal has always been to drive change through the ‘measure and improve’ model and help translate quality improvement to lives saved from out-of-hospital cardiac arrest. Please visit mycares.net for more information. We are eternally grateful to the survivors, families, and speakers who shared their personal experiences as part of this effort. Without these stories, this video would not have come to fruition.
