Resuscitation Training

Basic Life support
We are always keen to get out into the community and share skills. Recently, Dr Lunts, Dr Grove and Emma Mahon (our paramedic emergency care practitioner) visited Henbury School to teach resuscitation skills to Year 10 students.
Basic life support teaches the importance of attempting resuscitation and when and how to use a defibrillator. |
This training save lives. In Norway, where resuscitation is taught routinely in schools, the survival rate from cardiac arrests is 25% whereas in the UK survival is less than 10%.
We hope by sharing these skills with young people they will confident if ever faced with the situation. The students were very enthusiastic and left the session saying they would be prepared to try out the skills they learnt if they ever needed to.
