Phones aren’t just for calls, texts or apps they can also save lives.

If you ever need to help someone, check their lock screen: Emergency then Medical ID.

And if you haven’t set yours up yet, take a few minutes to do it today. It’s quick, easy, and could literally save your life.

Heart attacks and cardiac arrests are often mentioned together, but they are very different emergencies and the treatment for each is not the same.

We have explained the difference recently in a previous post but swipe to see the key differences in treatment, so you can respond quickly and confidently if the situation arises.

Awareness saves lives and every second counts.

Did you know that automated external defibrillators (AEDs) can dramatically increase survival rates in cardiac arrests? For every minute of delay in using one, the chance of a casualty surviving drops by 10%.

At a recent networking event, I demonstrated just how simple and intuitive these life-saving devices are to use. (By delivering a demonstration with a 10 minute time limit).

The good news is that AEDs are becoming more widely available in workplaces, public spaces, and communities. Making them much more accessible.

Learning how to use an AED can make the difference between life and death. The more people who feel confident stepping in, the higher survival rates become.

Last week we delivered a free CPR & AED session for local school children as part of day (which is this Thursday)

It was lovely to receive this letter from year 5 to say thanks and showing how much they’ve remembered.

Educating young people in these vital skills is so important to improve survival rates for out of hospital cardiac arrests.

It doesn’t need to be a fully approved course, do something this week to help you learn CPR! Feel free to give me a message if you have any questions you’ve always wanted to know the answer too

This week's sessions included Level 3 Emergency First Aid @ Work for PTs , Basic Life Support training for Market St surgery clinicians, and complimentary CPR training for a local school.

Our female manikin made its debut, highlighting that CPR techniques shouldn't differ for females.
