A Message from Air Ambulance Cardiac Arrests are the most called to incidents for our Critical Care Teams at Air Ambulance. But did you know that fewer than 1 in 10 survive an out of hospital cardiac arrest? For every minute that someone is in cardiac arrest without receiving CPR and early defibrillation used on them, their chance of survival decreases by 10%. Early defibrillation within 3–5 minutes of collapse can increase survival rates by up to 50-70%. It is our mission to boost the confidence of our community to begin basic life support when they see someone collapse. Our CPR Skills for Life training will give you and your relatives the confidence and knowhow to step in with early intervention.

These sessions are being offered to Parents and Grandparents of Noadswood school. We are very lucky to be able to offer you 4 different session times depending on your availability on the day to come along and try CPR as well as having the chance of using a defibrillator all whilst having a leisurely catch up with some friends. Tea/coffee and biscuits will be available for each session. The actual session time for learning these basic life saving skills will be 1 hour, giving you time to have a chat, ask questions and have a drink.

At Noadswood school, Air Ambulance are offering sessions to parents and grandparents to learn this lifesaving skill. We have spaces available on the 2-3.30pm session and 5-6.30pm session. If you would like to reserve your space, please click on this link: https://forms.office.com/e/pTvPd0Xvvw
