Join the Nation of Lifesavers

Nation of Lifesavers

We’re working in states and communities across the state to improve the chain of survival from cardiac arrest: CPR training as high school graduation requirement so that more people are ready to take action when cardiac arrests occur; requiring schools and athletic facilities and events have a Cardiac Emergency Response Plan, and ensuring the person who answers the 911 call can identify a cardiac emergency and coach the caller through CPR.

Every patient deserves access to high-quality heart and stroke care, regardless of where they live. Each year, the American Heart Association recognizes hospitals across the country for consistently following up-to-date, research-based treatment guidelines for cardiovascular disease.

In Your Community

The American Heart Association is committed to driving equitable health impact in North Dakota through five key priority areas: women, readiness, tobacco and vaping, patients, and healthy living. Equity is always at the center of our work, and it will continue to guide all that we do.

Through our focus on these key impact areas, and with collaboration among local organizations, sponsors, businesses, and others that serve the community, we are working to improve the health and well-being of North Dakota citizens while saving and improving countless lives.

Throughout the state of North Dakota, we’ve seen our community impact work grow, including efforts around creating avenues for greater access to care, expanding healthy food access and education, building a network of first responders through CPR kits in schools, supporting blood pressure screenings and education, and educating on the dangers of tobacco and vaping.

People are counting on us as never before. We at the American Heart Association, along with our supporters, will drive change, and we will be relentless. Thank you for your continued support.
