This week, our friends at We R CPR hosted a CPR certification class for staff at Catholic Charities of East Tennessee. Before the hands-on training began, Dr. Tyler Emerson spoke about the critical importance of hands-only CPR in saving lives during cardiac emergencies.

Dr. Emerson, a board-certified cardiologist at The Chattanooga Heart Institute, specializes in cardiovascular imaging and prevention. His commitment to both clinical excellence and community education helps bridge the gap between advanced care and everyday preparedness.

At The Chattanooga Heart Institute, freedom means more than fireworks and parades. It’s the ability to walk, breathe, and recover. It’s every hand held after surgery, every step taken after rehab, every heartbeat that keeps a family whole.

Today, we’re grateful for the freedoms we enjoy as a nation and the privilege we have to protect the health and dignity of our community every day.

From all of us at The Chattanooga Heart Institute, Happy Independence Day 🇺🇸

Yesterday, Dr. Sam Jones and Dr. John Craig led an outstanding educational session for physicians, nurse practitioners, and surgical staff at The Chattanooga Heart Institute. The hands-on training allowed participants to dissect pig hearts and explore anatomy from multiple perspectives.

Pig hearts closely resemble human hearts in both structure and function, making them ideal for practicing surgical techniques. This approach provides a valuable, ethical, and cost-effective way to enhance clinical skills and deepen anatomical understanding.
