Due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. The National Ambulance Service has announced that all Community First Responders (CFR) Groups have been stood down with immediate effect.
A spokesman said “The decision was not made lightly and was only made following much discussion and consideration surrounding the health, safety and welfare of all responders'
This situation will continue for the duration of the Covid 19 pandemic CFR’s will return to active duty when they get confirmation from the National Ambulance Service that it is safe to do so.
In the event of a family member collapsing would you know what
to do?
Check for a response – gently shake the person’s shoulders and ask loudly 'are you alright?
Check for normal breathing
Someone having a cardiac arrest won’t be breathing, or won’t be breathing normally. They
also won’t be conscious. Look, listen and feel for no more than 10 seconds.
If the person is not breathing or not breathing normally:
- Call for help and ask someone to call 999 immediately and ask for an ambulance
- ask someone for a public access defibrillator (PAD).
If there is no one there to help you call 999 yourself and put your phone on handsfree.
Start CPR.
During the Covid 19 Pandemic it is advisable that compression only CPR is performed. No
breaths are to be given to the patient.
