Bengals to hold ‘Bengals Save The Day’ event to teach CPR

Last season at Paycor Stadium, Damar Hamlin collapsed on the field after his cardiac arrest he suffered against the Cincinnati Bengals, with CPR taking place on the field before he was quickly transferred to the hospital, where he recovered.

Now, the Bengals are teaming up with Cintas, Kettering Health and the American Heart Association to raise awareness and educate the community on Oct. 24 in an event called “Bengals Save The Dey presented by Cintas.”

At the event, attendees will be taught CPR and about AEDs, with CPR and AED kits being distributed to local schools, and wellness checks will be given to those who attend.

“Bengals Save The Dey is an important initiative to educate and empower hundreds of members of our community with lifesaving CPR skills, the role of AEDs and the importance of receiving timely medical attention,” said Bengals Director of Strategy and Engagement Elizabeth Blackburn.
