BOH76-Brandon Griffith - Blue Heart Foundation - A Badge of Honor TV

Hosts and PTSI Resilience Trainers John Salerno and Samantha Horwitz talk with Brandon Griffith, founder of Griffith Blue Heart Foundation on @A Badge of Honor Podcast.
 Brandon is a Deputy Sheriff for Pinal County Sheriff’s Office, a decorated peace officer, speaker, and advanced instructor with emergency medical training. He is an Arizona native whom believes in a life of service to this great country.
Brandon dropped dead in his home at the age of 26 from an electrical malfunction in his heart. He was saved by his wife and co-founder Melissa Griffith. He is one of the few if not the only Police Officer in the country to return to full active duty after with a defibrillator implanted in his chest.
Brandon developed the Griffith Blue Heart programs and services when he returned to the field after his cardiac arrest and realized how unprepared the majority of law enforcement is for time-sensitive medical emergencies. He comprised his programs and much of the curriculum from the field where he uses his emergency medical training.
 Founded in 2014, Griffith Blue Heart is a registered 501(c)3 nonprofit organization with the mission of preparing, training, and equipping law enforcement to increase out-of-hospital survival of time-sensitive medical emergencies like cardiac arrest, uncontrolled bleeding, drug overdoses, drownings, excited delirium, and more. Griffith Blue Heart is comprised of leading experts in law enforcement resuscitation and systems of care.
