🔴🟡 Rescue Report | Clifton 4th Beach | Sunday 14 December 2025

At approx. 15:12 on Sunday, 14 December 2025, a member of the public alerted lifeguards Ellen Hodgkinson, Moune Ilderton and Bronson Shaw, stationed on Clifton 4th Beach, that an elderly female had collapsed on the stairs.

Ellen and Bronson responded with a medical bag and found the patient sitting against the stairway wall, unresponsive, pale and showing signs of a heart attack. A faint pulse and breathing were initially present. Ellen contacted emergency services, ran to alert the others and grabbed the AED (automated external defibrillator). Moune retrieved the oxygen and the BVM (bag-valve mask). Netcare911, ER24, CSO and Ta**us Medical were notified at approx. 15:14.

The patient was laid flat and reassessed; she had stopped breathing and no pulse was detected. Bronson immediately commenced CPR (cardiopulmonary resuscitation).

Lifeguards Moune Ilderton, Tanner Gorille, Teagan Thompson and Zack Waters responded to assist. Bronson, Teagan, Zack and Tanner rotated chest compressions. The AED advised a shock, which was administered.

At approx.15:29, CSO and Law Enforcement arrived, followed by Netcare911, ER24 and Ta**us Medical. With continued CPR and advanced paramedic and medical doctor support, the patient regained a pulse, was stabilised and transported to hospital at approx. 16:00.

The incident lasted approx. 45 minutes. Due to the rapid lifeguard response and immediate oxygen and AED use, the outcome was positive. Appreciation is extended to all responding emergency services.
