Support Hampshire and Isle of Wight Air Ambulance build a new airbase to bring the life-saving service to the centre of the community.

01/03/2026

I’m very proud to volunteer for the Hampshire & Isle of Wight Air Ambulance and yesterday I attended a CPR Skills for Life training event at the Royal Solent Yacht Club in Yarmouth.

CPR Skills for Life FREE sessions are delivered to community groups, corporate groups and schools and youth groups by a mix of members of HIOWA Critical Care Teams and their Basic Life Support Instructor trained staff and volunteers.

You will learn how to assess a patient, call for help, how to perform effective chest compressions, and how to use a defibrillator.

HIOWAA will bring their training manikin and defibrillator for you to learn and familiarise yourselves with.

The sessions last up to one hour and are completely free. Please get in touch with myself or the Charity directly if you would like them to come along to your Group.

By hosting a presentation, you support this lifesaving charity and your Group will learn this lifesaving skill.

“She loves her favourite chair… she’s comfortable.”

In my work as a care professional, that’s something I’ve heard more than once.
But here’s the part many families don’t realise:
As we age, we lose the natural padding that cushions our bones.

So when an elderly person sits for long periods, even in a soft recliner, it can become bone on surface.

Foam cushions compress.
Memory foam “bottoms out.” (pun intended!)
Even some gel cushions flatten under weight.

When pressure stays in one place too long:
• Blood flow reduces
• Skin breaks down
• A small red patch can turn into a serious wound

And it can happen faster than people think.

🚩 If redness doesn’t fade when pressed (blanch), that’s a warning sign.

🚩 Pressure injuries start beneath the skin, before they are visible. Regular skin integrity checks are imperative for those with reduced mobility or anyone who spends a long time in one position.

🚩 If a cushion “goes flat,” it’s not protecting.
Soft doesn’t always mean safe.

Pressure sores are often preventable with the right knowledge, equipment and regular repositioning.

If your loved one spends most of their day in one chair, and you’re unsure what to look for — I’m always happy to help 💛

As part of my service as a self-employed carer, I can carry out regular skin integrity checks and work proactively to prevent pressure sores before they start.

Prevention is always better than treatment.
