Cardiac arrest can happen anywhere including at home. In the UK, less than 1 in 10 people survive a cardiac arrest outside hospital. But there’s good news: if someone nearby starts CPR quickly, their chances of survival can more than double or even quadruple compared with waiting for help to arrive.
Around 80 % of these emergencies happen in the home which means the people most likely to be there are you. Yet many adults aren’t confident performing CPR, and not all cardiac arrests receive bystander support.
Learning CPR doesn’t make you nervous it makes you prepared. Pop into Southcotts Pharmacy and have a conversation with our team about CPR awareness and where you can find basic training locally. Every minute matters and your knowledge could make all the difference.
