(COLORADO SPRINGS) — According to the American Red Cross, over 315,000 people who experience out-of-hospital cardiac arrest die every year. UCHealth is giving Colorado Springs the knowledge to combat that statistic with a free CPR class open to the public.
Those attending will be shown how to recognize a cardiac event, learn how to deliver CPR, learn how to use an auto external defib, and get hands-on experience giving CPR. UCHealth says this class will not offer a certification.
The class will be held on Saturday, Aug. 23, 2025, from 1 to 3 p.m. at Pikes Peak United Way’s Family Success Center at 1520 Verde Drive in Colorado Springs…
