New Initiative Delivers CPR Education Through ADP Mobile Solutions App To Build Nation Of Lifesaverstm

(MENAFN- PR Newswire) Cardiac arrest can happen to anyone, anywhere - and immediate CPR can double or triple a person's chance of survival. Yet according to the American Heart Association, a global force changing the future of health of all, seven in 10 Americans say they feel powerless to act during a cardiac emergency². Through this initiative, ADP, which pays one in six workers in the United States, is empowering its clients and associates with lifesaving education at scale.

"Increasing access to modern, accessible CPR education is critical to saving more lives from cardiac arrest," said Nancy Brown, chief executive officer of the American Heart Association. "Through Nation of Lifesavers, we aim to double the survival rate from sudden cardiac arrest by 2030. With this support from ADP, we can bring lifesaving skills directly to the fingertips of millions of workers."

The program, which is optional to clients, offers ADP Mobile Solutions users a simple two-step learning opportunity: watch a 60-second Hands-Only CPR video, then complete a four-question assessment. After completing the assessment, users receive a digital Nation of Lifesavers badge to recognize their commitment to helping save lives. Since piloting this feature in ADP Mobile Solutions in Fall 2024, more than 160,000 users have already engaged in the Hands-Only CPR mobile education, with the potential to reach the app's 14 million active monthly users, as the availability expands.

"Every decision we make is centered on helping people thrive at work and in life," said Maria Black, president and CEO of ADP. "Through technology and human-centered innovation, we are proud to support the work of the American Heart Association in building a stronger chain of survival across the workplace."

In addition to the mobile learning, ADP is hosting in-person Hands-Only CPR and automated external defibrillator (AED) training sessions at 18 of its office locations nationwide. The company aims to educate its associates on Hands-Only CPR and AED use through over 100 sessions in 2025 and early 2026. ADP's commitment to cardiac health extends beyond the office. For the past four years, ADP associates have also participated in American Heart Association Heart Walk events across the country to raise awareness and funds for heart health.

Hands-Only CPR, which involves chest compressions without rescue breaths, is effective for teens and adults who experience sudden cardiac arrest. Immediate action - including the use of an AED when available - can dramatically increase the chance of survival.³ However, only half of workers can locate an AED at their workplace today, according to the Association.
