A Note from Our COO
We’re celebrating an exciting milestone for HealthStream, our customers, and
especially the patients they serve. We have hit 3 million online completions using
HeartCode ® . In partnership with experts at the American Heart Association and
Laerdal Medical, this program as well as Resuscitation Quality Improvement ® (RQI),
were developed to educate, train, and promote high-quality CPR.
These solutions embody the HealthStream Vision—To improve the quality of
healthcare by assessing and developing the people who deliver care. But the truth
is, together, we have a lot of room to grow. It’s estimated that only 23% of adult
patients will survive in-hospital sudden cardiac arrest; and the survival rate drops to
around 10% outside of a hospital. The thought of a friend or family member being
part of that low percentage is personal and drives us to ensure several more million
will commit to improve this statistic using our blended learning solutions that adhere
to the latest AHA Guidelines.
If you’re not already taking advantage of these great products, what are you waiting
for? We invite you walk this journey with us and welcome the opportunity to share
how we can help you achieve success for your CPR practice with HeartCode and
RQI.
Congratulations to everyone involved in this milestone in improving patient
outcomes. Together we’re making a difference!

Chief Operating Officer
