Our Resuscitation Guidelines are reviewed and updated every five years, and in October, we released the 2025 Guidelines.

This regular review means that:
🧑‍🔬 guidance reflects the latest evidence
❤️ best practice continues to improve patient outcomes
👥 guidelines are tailored to everyone involved in resuscitation.

Up-to-date guidance helps ensure the best possible care when it matters most.

If you’re ever in a situation where you need to use a public access defibrillator (PAD) and you have never learnt how to use one, or you forget the steps, just turn it on and listen closely.

Defibs have a built-in automated voice that will talk you through the steps, so they can be used by anyone to help save a life!
