BHF Heartstart Courses

[Richard Sneader]

Would you know what to do in a life-threatening emergency? Learning Emergency Life Support (ELS) skills can help you keep someone alive until professional help arrives.

IVMUK is proud to deliver the British Heart Foundation’s Heartstart scheme, which will teach participants skills to deal with assessing an unconscious patient, performing cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), dealing with choking, serious bleeding and helping someone that may be having a heart attack.

The courses are free but donations are asked as this is solely what enables us to keep the course going.

We are pleased to announce that the first three sessions will take place in Grays, Essex, on Wednesday July 25, August 8, and August 22 from 7pm (prompt) until 10pm.

Tea and coffee will be supplied and all donations will be gratefully received.

To book your place on one of the courses, email heartstart.ivmuk@hotmail.co.uk with your name and telephone number. We will then be in contact with further details once places have been allocated.

Hope to see you at one of the courses,

IVMUK steering group.
