Members of staff can ask to be formally released by their line managers to take part and count the session towards their continuous professional development (CPD). There is no need to sign up in advance of the day, please head straight to the location most convenient for you, and the staff there will register you onto the next available slot. The process for the training is simple and will take around 30 minutes. It is important to remember that your chances of surviving a cardiac arrest are almost zero if no one attempts CPR, so we hope that as many staff, students and members of the public as possible will join us on the day to take part. We anticipate that these sessions will be busy, thus we recommend those who would like to attend arrive early for a prompt start. We will also be hosting designated sessions that will focus, specifically, on performing CPR on infants. The event is open to all (regardless of any prior First Aid training that you may have completed) because refreshing your memory of what to do in an emergency whilst awaiting an ambulance is just as important as learning the technique in the first place. In the process, we aim to raise awareness of the vital work of the British Heart Foundation and hope to bring the East Midlands’ cardiac arrest survival rate of 1/18 in line with the national average of 1/10. Over the course of the day we are aiming to train or provide refresher training in CPR for 1,300 individuals in order to give them the confidence to perform this life saving technique should an emergency situation arise.
