CPR moments stay with people. They can be intense, emotional, and hard to forget, whether you stepped in to give CPR or watched someone else do it. Those memories can linger for a long time, and it’s completely normal to feel that way.

Chest Heart & Stroke Scotland offers a free, confidential Advice Line where trained healthcare professionals are ready to listen, support you, and help you make sense of what happened. You don’t have to work through those feelings on your own.

We understand that recent infant formula recalls may be causing worry for parents and carers. Our information page explains which products are affected and what you should do.

Batches from brands including Aptamil, Cow & Gate and SMA have been recalled. If you have formula at home, check the batch code as affected products may still be in your cupboard.

If you have an affected batch:

- Stop using it
- Return it to the store for a replacement
- You can switch to another batch or brand
- If formula was prescribed, speak to a pharmacist or doctor first
