Some more fantastic work by Clare Seed at Tidal Training Direct⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ First Aid Training today with their Public Hearts campaign.

They held a 14-35 Heart Screening with CRY at School House Café. Really simple process to take part in - and over 100 people tested with an ECG.

(1/2)

A really important initiative to help prevent sudden cardiac deaths in young people. Get yourself tested if you can. I'm thankful to have that reassurance myself.

Public Hearts Screening day today ❤️💚❤️💚❤️

Before beginning CPR, first check for signs of life: are they unconscious, unresponsive, not breathing or not breathing normally?

Noisy, infrequent or gasping breaths are not normal breathing.
