Building HEARTSafe Community with our friends HEARTsafe South Lane ❤️

"They are the reason I'm still here, and I'm very glad to be here. I owe my life to them."

Those are the words of Chris Ellis, who collapsed from cardiac arrest while volunteering at Row River Nature Park in Cottage Grove, OR.

Within moments, fellow volunteers began CPR. First responders arrived with an AED, and Chris was rushed to PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend, where the cardiac team provided the specialized care that helped save his life.

Today, Chris is continuing his recovery, grateful for every person who stepped in when he needed them most.
