Ever heard of a myth or an old wives’ tale and thought, “surely this can’t be true”? One we hear frequently is, “putting something in a seizing person’s mouth will stop them biting their tongue”.

This is completely FALSE!

We’re here to debunk fact from fiction. Here’s what you should actually do when someone is having a seizure.

What bizarre first aid myths have you heard of?

A cardiac arrest and a heart attack are both serious, but they’re two different medical emergencies.

As a member of the public, understanding the difference in what causes them, what to look out for, and how to respond can help you act quickly and confidently in an emergency.

Women are 28% less likely to get CPR in public—because, people get weird about b***s! We're here to change that and show you how to get over the awkward and save a life!

While on holiday last week, I came across a Public Access Trauma First Aid Kit (PAcT)! Have you ever seen one or do you know what's inside—and how to use it? These kits are becoming increasingly available in public places like football stadiums and arenas.

PAcT kits typically contain items such as face shields, hemostatic bandages, tourniquets, and personal protective equipment (PPE). Since they’re designed for public use, they also include clear instruction sheets to guide you through using the contents effectively.

That said, having basic life-saving first aid knowledge is always the best starting point when responding to any emergency.

In addition to our regulated first aid courses, we also offer workshops that cover essential life-saving skills—perfect for individuals, workplaces, or community groups.
