A fun and impactful group experience
CardiacCrash is a made-in-Canada experience that teaches hands-only CPR and AED use in a high-energy, interactive way. It's easy to deliver in environments like workplaces, community organizations and schools with minimal facilitator training, equipment, and technology.
Teams compete for points by answering questions correctly and winning their group's hands-only CPR practice session. The facilitator of CardiacCrash monitors the quality of the CPR performed and determines the winner of each session.
Better survival rates of women suffering cardiac arrest
A woman experiencing cardiac arrest in a public place is less likely to receive CPR than a man.
The CardiacCrash workplace version features a woman experiencing cardiac arrest to spotlight the reluctance of bystanders to step up and perform CPR on women.
Film excellence
Heart & Stroke enlisted award-winning interactive video director Martin Percy to bring CardiacCrash to life for workplaces.
CardiacCrash wins three Webby Awards. Heart & Stroke wins BOTH Webby People's Voice Award: "Public Service & Activism" and "Science & Education." In addition, a panel of international experts selected CardiacCrash: Monica as the winner of the "Public Service & Activism" category.
