State of Health in Maine

According to America’s Health Rankings 2016 report, the percentage of the Maine population without health insurance is very low; most of Maine’s residents are insured. Maine also has a larger number of primary care physicians per 100,000 people than many states, with over 183 physicians. However, the state does have a higher than average prevalence of low birthweight, which can cause health problems later in life.

Over the last four years, the percentage of Maine residents who smoke has decreased by 4%; only 19.5% of adults in Maine report that they smoke now, compared to 20.3% who said the same four years ago. Maine is still one of the highest states, despite this decrease. Unfortunately, infant mortality has increased by 20% over the same time period, rising from 5.5 last four years ago to 6.9 deaths per 1,000 live births.

Unfortunately, cardiovascular deaths have increased slightly by 2% over the past two years; for every 100,000 residents of Maine who die, 220.8 die from some cardiac related issue (this compares to only 215.4 in 2014.) This is why it is important to increase the amount of laypersons with CPR certification in Maine.

Many factors may increase the chances of a cardiac related event; Some important ones include physical inactivity and obesity. 24.8% of Maine residents are physically inactive, while 30% of Maine residents are obese. Completing a CPR certification course online with AED training can help teach laypersons as well as medical personnel how to respond properly in the case of a cardiac emergency.
