Last month a dozen Brethren Leary how to save lives. Mike from the Cardiac Action Group attended the Masonic Hall where he taught those attending how to undertake CPR and use the AED machine which we have where we meet.
The evening was enjoyed by all and more importantly taught key skills that could help save lives.
For any of our Brethren interested in attending similar events please do get in touch to register your interest. CAG was originally formed to support the rehabilitation of Guernsey cardiac patients recovering from a heart attack or recent surgery.
In recent years as this remit has passed to HSSD, they have extended their provision to include the promotion of life saving CPR* (Cardiopulmonary resuscitation) and the recognition and use of defibrillator devices which are positioned across the island. Additionally, CAG can provide training for CPR and the use of AEDs/PADs. CPR & AED/PAD training with CAG Training and familiarisation with both CPR and defibrillator devices can literally save a life in an emergency situation when time is of the essence. CAG provide a first aid professional for this purpose, Mike Froome.
Mike can be booked free of charge and is also generally available at public events. Training is most effectively deployed in a group situation and is available to everyone.
If you run a community group, work in a school or would like your staff in the workplace to have the benefit of this training, please contact them directly – https://cag.org.gg/pads-aeds/cpr-and-aedpad-training/
