Maya del Rosario, MS, CGC Genetic counselors may work with patients at elevated risk for cardiac arrest, yet have no requirements to be trained in use of CPR/AED nor counseling about CPR/AED preparedness with families. Furthermore, anyone could be a bystander to out-of-hospital cardiac arrest (OHCA), a medical crisis that has dismal survival odds of only 10% nationwide. This session will incorporate survivor and bystander story-telling, targeted teaching about OHCA preparedness and legislative advocacy, and sharing of genetic counselors' insights into counseling about OHCA preparedness. Learning Objectives: 1. Summarize the current occurrence and survival rates of out-of-hospital cardiac arrests (OHCA), including related disparities 2. Examine first-hand experiences of OHCA as told by a survivor of OHCA who had genetic predisposition and a bystander 3. Illustrate actions bystanders can take to improve survival of OHCA 4. Identify organizations, initiatives, and legislation aimed at increasing bystander preparedness for OHCA 5. Demonstrate strategies to incorporate CPR/AED preparedness into genetic counseling session The National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC) has authorized National Society of Genetic Counselors (NSGC) to offer up to 1.5 Category 1 contact hours for All Hands on Deck: Increasing the Survival Odds of Out-of-Hospital Cardiac Arrest. The American Board of Genetic Counseling (ABGC) will accept CEUs earned at this program for the purposes of genetic counselor certification and recertification. Successful Completion: 1.
