Yesterday we welcomed our neighbouring businesses at Prince’s Court to our training room.

We’ve recently had a public access defibrillator installed on site.

Whilst no training is required for someone to use a public access defibrillator, people can sometimes lack confidence and have a fear of using the equipment if they have no prior knowledge.

So, we invited all of the businesses on Prince’s Court to come over yesterday and attend a complimentary defibrillator awareness session.

During the session we covered:

-The primary survey

-Delivering CPR to an adult and a child

-Using a public access defibrillator on an adult and child

-The recovery position

At the end of the session everyone was invited to practice what they’d learnt using our mannequins and training defibrillators.

We hope that no-one will ever need to use the site defib. However, should they ever have to, we hope that after today’s session they have a greater confidence to do so.
