OhioHealth Providers Honored for Life-Saving Actions on the Sidelines

February 13, 2025
On Nov. 27, 2024, basketball official Andre Johnson suffered cardiac arrest during a varsity basketball game. Medical professionals, fans from the stands, and an AED saved his life.
 
Mr. Johnson returned to that same court last Saturday to a standing ovation.
 
The OHSAA asks schools to have Emergency Medical Action Plans, practice them, and know where the AED is located.
 
"The quick reaction of all the people involved helped save a person's life that night."
