Restart a Heart – Free CPR & Defibrillator Awareness Sessions

Time: 9 a.m.-4 p.m.

Restart a Heart – Free CPR & Defibrillator Awareness Sessions
Hosted by Cobalt Hospital (Part of Ramsay Health Care)

Restart a Heart (RSAH) is an annual initiative led by the Resuscitation Council UK to increase survival rates from out-of-hospital cardiac arrests. Every October, organisations worldwide unite to raise awareness and help more people learn life-saving CPR and defibrillator skills.

CPR is a skill for everyone. During a cardiac arrest, every second matters. Without CPR and defibrillation, the chance of survival drops by 10% each minute. Together, we can ensure more people feel confident and ready to act when it counts most.

Why It Matters

• 100,000 out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur annually in the UK

• 80% happen at home

• Every minute without CPR reduces survival chances by 10%

• Only 11% of people feel confident using a defibrillator

• Many mistakenly believe only medical professionals can use one

What You’ll Learn

• How to perform CPR

• How to use a defibrillator

• What to do when someone collapses and stops breathing
