Every day women strive to master the challenges of demanding personal and professional lives. The need for challenging the status quo is often something they face. Sharing their experiences can be powerful and empowering – defining moments that can be life changing. The Women in Resuscitation Leadership Session at the Cardiac Arrest Survival Summit is an opportunity to do just that. This event will include a moderated panel discussion enabling current and aspiring women leaders across the field of resuscitation to connect, learn from each other and explore how to build on their success.
