Fox News
Health professionals, athletes and administrators are joining forces in order to promote CPR and AED (automated external defibrillator) training to increase awareness.
"The idea is to ensure that lifesaving policies are in place at the high school level to make sure that our kids, if they suffer sudden cardiac arrest, have the best possible chances of success," said Jeff Miller, the NFL's executive vice president for health and safety innovation. "Parents, coaches and others should insist upon these very basic, simple, easy-to-enact solutions." Bret Baier is the Chief Political Anchor of Fox News Channel, and the Anchor and Executive Editor of "Special Report with Bret Baier." He is the author of four presidential biographies, which tackle the critical issues of our times. His fifth biography, To Rescue the Constitution:George Washington and the Convention that Saved the American Experiment, will be published in 2023.
The NFL and other professional sports leagues are working with the Red Cross and the American Heart Association to promote their Smart Heart Coalition.
