In mid February, one of my placed Nannies, Jessica P, signed up for, and completed, a first aid training course run by Safe and Sound.
One month later, on St Patrick’s Day, whilst in Central London, Jessica found herself in the midst of an emergency situation, when a young girl in front of her collapsed on the pavement.
Jessica needed to carry out both mouth to mouth and CPR, as the girl’s heart had stopped.
She did indeed resuscitate the young girl, and carried on until the ambulance came.
When the paramedics arrived, they told Jessica that without any doubt at all, if it were not for her, the girl would be dead.
Just think – 18 years old, and the girl’s life would have been over if it were not for Jessica, and the first aid knowledge that she had recently learned.
Don’t leave it until after a situation has arisen that makes you think “I wish I knew what to do”, or perhaps worse still “I wish I had known what to do” – training courses are readily available, and the price is nothing compared to knowing what to do in an emergency, and even being able to save a life.
Since his terrible ordeal in front of millions, Fabrice Muamba is campaigning for an increase in CPR training …..
