CHURCH WILNE ROTARY CLUB

 Speaker Evening – CPR Training with Alyson Whitaker (NHS) 


President Nigel welcomed Alyson Whitaker who taught us how to carryout cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). Such a brilliant evening, teaching the club and guests how to save a life. The British Heart Foundation has an excellent website with a short training course. https://www.bhf.org.uk/how-you-can-help/how-to-save-a-life/how-to-do-cpr 

We practiced on several CPR training manikin’s, using defibrillators, and became quite proficient by the end of the training. There is an excellent app, for phones https://www.stayingalive.org Just touch the icon, and it talks and guides you how to carry out CPR. A great help in a stress full situation. Load it on your phones now! It also shows you where the nearest defibrillator is. Alyson offered to teach groups how to carry out CPR, just contact our secretary and we will pass your details onto Alyson.
