CPR during cardiac arrest: someone’s life is in your hands

Cardiac arrest is the ultimate 911 emergency.

Death occurs in minutes — unless a bystander takes matters into his or her hands and starts cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR).

Testimonial
I recently attended the session you ran at the Nelson Bays PHO for CPR Level 2 .  It was very professional and informative but at the same time you made it interesting with your stories.  It was the best session that I have attended in many years and that was down to your real enthusiasm for encouraging everyone to give it a go rather than do nothing.  I think that is the thing that most stood out for me from the whole session… even if your technique is not perfect it is better than doing nothing at all. I would not hesitate to recommend Resus Nelson for professional training with an added touch of humour. - Jane Green, Receptionist / Administrator, Skin Institute
