Sessay Community First Responders

Sessay Community First Responders Sessay Community First Responders were established in July 2010 and work in partnership with the Yorkshire Ambulance Service in our local area.

As authorised volunteers for the ambulance service we work as part of a dedicated team whose aim is to reduce the number of pre-hospital deaths in Yorkshire. We are trained by YAS in Basic Life Support, CPR, use of Oxygen and the Defibrillator. In many medical emergencies, the first few minutes are critical and if effective treatment can be provided within that time, lives can be saved, and that's where we come in. We all have full time jobs but believe what we are doing is a real benefit to our local community. We not only cover the village of Sessay but also, Dalton, Topcliffe, Bagby, Thornaby, Helperby and all areas in between.

Today one of our YAS CFR volunteers was supporting Yorkshire Ambulance Service NHS Trust with day at Queen Mary's School Topcliffe. Over 100 children taught the potential lifesaving skill of CPR. Fantastic enthusiasm from all concerned and some amazing questions from the girls.

You're never too young, or too old, to learn CPR!

To perform chest compressions on someone who has gone into cardiac arrest, you should:

Put your two hands together and interlock your fingers, place your hands on the centre of the chest and push hard and fast. You should push twice a second, and not stop until an ambulance arrives or the person regains consciousness.
