Thanks @looknorthBBC for helping to raise awareness of knowing CPR. I know I’ve been banging on about it for years, but then this happened… 🤷‍♂️ @ResusCouncilUK @YorksAmbulance @TheBHF @stjohnambulance @RedCross @BBCNews @easyJet_press @easyJet #restartaheart #restartaheartday

Happy New Year everyone. Having worked over Christmas Eve, Christmas Day and Boxing Day… I was off for NYE, so I am spending a few days away, in Poland 🇵🇱…. NYE in Warsaw was crazy!!! 🎆

Last year Mike had a cardiac arrest at home and his partner Jen called 999, performed CPR until the ambulance arrived and Mike went on to make a full recovery. He and his partner then did some fundraising for @yas_charity Today he came to meet the crews who attended and helped to save his life. @YorksAmbulance @World_RAH #restartaheart @ResusCouncilUK

Perfect day today 🌞… @YorksAmbulance attended @HumberRescue open day, alongside @Humberbeat , @BTP , @HumbersideFire , @HMCoastguard !

I think it’s safe to say, the therapy dog visit from Skye from @PetsAsTherapyUK was a success 🐶🥰 @YorksAmbulance

Contemplating…

@oxford_eliza @looknorthBBC @ResusCouncilUK @YorksAmbulance @TheBHF @stjohnambulance @RedCross @BBCNews @easyJet_press @easyJet Reasons are different around the world. In developed countries, one of the biggest barriers reported is a fear of doing harm (which is usually not possible in the case of a cardiac arrest) and also a lack of confidence (due to lack of awareness and knowledge).

@YAS_JonT @looknorthBBC @ResusCouncilUK @YorksAmbulance @TheBHF @stjohnambulance @RedCross @BBCNews @easyJet_press @easyJet It’s great to see awareness spreading! What do you think are the biggest barriers preventing more people from learning CPR, and how can we overcome them?

@JasonManford Wonder if there are any GPs in the audience 😂

Ready to see @JasonManford in Hull

Love this joke by @JasonManford … a bit of inter-professional banter 😂 Also a great survival story from someone who suffered a cardiac arrest at one of his shows 🙏 @UkResuscitation @ParamedicsUK @gmcuk @NHSuk @TheBHF @SJAOperations @StJohnEngland @The_HCPC

@gueringeoffrey4 On devrait jouer un jour 🎾

@AMAZlNGNATURE Looks like tonic-clinic seizure activity.

Great day yesterday at #Doncasterpride with colleagues from @YorksAmbulance @SYFR @syptweet @doncasterpride #pride @yas_charity @TASCharity #pride2024 #ukpride #doncaster

Essentially yes, they have a tiered response (BLS response which is by firefighter-EMTs) who generally arrive first, usually within 4 minutes I’m told) and then they are followed by an ALS-capable response)… who cover a larger geographical area (compared to the BLS response), which is why they are usually the “second” responders. But the success rate is likely due to the BLS that is provided so well and in such a timely manner. #chainofsurvival (it really is the basics done right that leads to survival… not the fancy ALS stuff)

@YAS_JonT @KingCoMedicOne Do they send fire trucks as first responders

I spent the day with King County Medic One, Seattle. Here, if you have an out of hospital cardiac arrest, you have a 40-50% chance of survival. This is phenomenal, in contrast to the UK’s 8-10%! Interesting to see the different solutions to the same problems. @KingCoMedicOne @YorksAmbulance @ResusCouncilUK #CPR #restartaheart #InternationalParamedicsDay

@BLS_Specialist @KingCoMedicOne … to discharge

Higher bystander CPR rates being a factor for sure… this itself due to a greater public awareness of CPR and AED use (and availability). Also the EMS response to a cardiac arrest is a team of at least 5 who drill together the running of OOHCA (using pit crew model) and are super slick 😝
