About

TAKE10 Cincinnati is a grassroots effort involving citizens, rescuers and doctors designed to educate and rally the community about compression-only CPR, an easy-to-learn technique that can save lives.

Developed by Take Heart Austin and brought to Cincinnati by UC Health, TAKE10 is a free, 10-minute training on the hands-only technique that gives people the confidence to act in an emergency.

The more people in our community who TAKE10, the better chance we all have for surviving a sudden cardiac arrest. Find out how to TAKE10 today.
