Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Training
April 7, 2022 @ 7:00 pm - 10:00 pm
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) Training.
Basic life support and CPR skills training with Sarah Brewer and Keith Edwards community training officer for South West Ambulance.
A two hour training session on Thursday 7th April starting at 7pm.
A Brief History and How to Book:
In 2015 we held some very popular and well received sessions on basic life support and CPR training in the Village Hall.
This resulted in the installation of the village defibrillator sited at the Village Hall, by kind agreement of the Village Hall Management Committee and kindly sponsored by the Lustleigh Association Of Volunteer Drivers, LADS.
There has been recent discussion on the LADS committee about arranging further CPR training sessions.
The sudden collapse of a relative friend or neighbour is difficult to cope with but having the confidence to assess, call for help and administer basic life support whilst waiting for emergency services to arrive can be a life saver.
Although many of us may have these skills they soon become rusty and it is important to practice them and keep up to date.
Sarah Brewer and Keith Edwards the community training officer for South West Ambulance are planning a series of training sessions which we hope to arrange in April.
We will be holding 2 hour sessions for 12 people in the village hall that will cover basic life support, recognition of stroke and other medical emergencies.
The sessions will be free but we suggest a contribution to a charity of your choice.
Please contact me if you would like to attend one of these sessions and we will confirm dates as soon as we can. We may be able to arrange further sessions should they be needed.
