CPR, or cardiopulmonary resuscitation, is an emergency life-saving procedure used when the heart stops beating. According to the American Heart Association, immediate CPR can double or triple the chances of survival following cardiac arrest. CPR is important because it helps maintain blood flow, which can extend the opportunity for a successful resuscitation once trained medical staff arrive on site.

Hands-only CPR is recommended for the general public or bystanders who witness someone collapse. It does not require mouth-to-mouth resuscitation and consists of two easy steps:
1. Call 9-1-1 (or have someone else call)
2. Push hard and fast in the center of the chest to the beat of a familiar song at 100 to 120 beats per minute. An example is “Staying Alive” by the Bee Gees. Continue compressions until medical help arrives.

Aphasia is a communication disorder that affects a person’s ability to understand or express speech, often caused by brain damage from a stroke or other neurological conditions. Speech therapy plays a central role in helping people with aphasia regain and improve communication skills.

A speech-language therapist works with individuals to improve their ability to speak, understand language, read, write, and interpret gestures. Therapists also teach the use of alternative communication tools, such as communication boards, picture books, or mobile apps.

Treatment is individualized. Along with rebuilding lost language skills, therapists help individuals strengthen remaining abilities to support everyday conversations and increase independence. Therapy is delivered in structured settings and often includes family members or caregivers to improve understanding and provide support at home.

In addition to family and caregiver support, individuals may also benefit from support groups. These groups offer emotional encouragement, access to resources, and help reduce isolation by connecting individuals with others facing similar challenges.
