Meerilinga Woodvale is hosting a free Royal Life Saving WA Heartbeat 45 years+ CPR and First Aid course at North Woodvale Primary School.
Did you know half of all drowning deaths recorded in WA are adults aged 45 years and over? In the event of a drowning, CPR performed at the scene could be the difference between life and death. Could you provide lifesaving assistance until emergency help arrives? As with any skill, resuscitation can be forgotten if not practiced regularly.
The Heart Beat 45+ community education course is specifically designed for adults who would like to learn more about how to respond in an emergency. This training session covers first aid and CPR including cardiac arrest, sunstroke, choking, hypothermia, shock and bleeding, and bites and stings.
