Our healthcare and emergency systems are overwhelmed
Hospital wait times are getting longer and 9-1-1 Emergency Services response times are increasing and bystanders and patients are on their own for longer periods of time.

Our current systems are overwhelmed:
- Hospital ED wait times are getting longer
- Bed availability is in short supply, clinics, and access to Doctors and Nurses. We need thousands of more healthcare professionals
- 9-1-1 response times are increasing
- An aging population needs more help and care
- Extreme weather and natural disasters
- Community Opioid Crisis
- Community disasters, evacuations, utility failures
- Mental health and suicide problems
- Community Emergency Preparendess and getting the public prepared and ready
We have an enormous untapped resource: Bystanders
The Challenge
Bystanders don’t get involved
Bystanders are often afraid to help. They are uncertain what to do, they don’t want to make the injury worse, and they don’t want to get sued or have legal problems and they often say “I can’t remember my training”.

Most bystanders want to help, but are afraid to get involved – they say:
- “I don’t know what to do”
- “I can’t remember my first aid training”, or “I haven’t practiced in a long time”
- “I don’t want to get sued or charged”
- “What if I do something wrong and cause more pain or make the injuries worse”
- “I might get sued if I make a mistake”
- “I’m afraid to call 9-1-1 because I’m high or drunk”
- “The ambulance will be here soon”
The Bystander Effect: a social psychological phenomenon in which individuals are less likely to offer help to a victim when other people are present.
First Aid and CPR skills are considered perishable skills. Studies show that people can forget 50% of what they have learned within 2 months of completing their training. And certification is usually valid for 2-3 years. Regular re-freshers and reviews are critical to remain confident.
We can’t wait! We need to act now!
While efforts are being made to fix the problems, it will still take years and cost billions of dollars.
When bystanders DO help the patient, outcomes greatly improve. For example, Sudden Cardiac Arrest survival rates improve significantly from < 5% to more than 35%!
We need bystanders to help reduce the injury severity of car crash victims, workplace accidents and children’s injuries!
