Did you know that we have a CPR app? 📲

This Shocktober, download this free app for yourself and spread the word with your loved ones to get that awareness out there - you never know when you'll need it.

The app gives you:
💛 Instructions on how to perform CPR and use an AED
💛 A timer to help with steady chest compressions
💛 English, Te Reo Māori and Simplified Chinese language options
💛 The option to change the emergency call number when you’re overseas

You can also learn CPR in-person at one of our free 3 Steps for Life sessions, proudly sponsored by our friends at MAS - Medical Assurance Society 😊

Find your nearest session and download our CPR app at the link in our comments below ⬇️
