Felicia Jackson almost lost her son when he was two-years-old. He was trying to cry but nothing came out.
Felicia Jackson, CPR Wraps says “My husband saw I was panicked, took him from my arms and saved his life.”
Felicia who is CPR certified knew if she panicked, it could happen to anybody.
Felicia Jackson “I knew I wanted to make sure this never happened to me again or other people as well.”
Felicia founded CPR Wraps. A disposable template.
Felicia Jackson “So what it is, is an all-in-one template has one way mouth barrier for breathing, visual hand placement for proper compression. Shows you how far to push down and simple CPR instructions printed right on top of the template.”
Felicia has been working to get CPR Wraps in the Hamilton County School System.
Felicia Jackson says “Hamilton County did actually give them to the nurses, but we are trying to get them in every classroom, so the staff can have access and initiate CPR while the nurse is coming.”
According the National Institutes of Health, each year, more than 15,000 children receive CPR for cardiac arrest.
Felicia Jackson says “We don’t think this could happen to us, but it does. I want to change that narrative and be proactive. We want to get you prepared.”
