In this fast paced society that we live in and especially here in Gauteng you can phone an ambulance service and be assured that within 10minutes you should have some sort of medical assistance at your doorstep ready to help. The unfortunate situation is that if the brain’s oxygen supply is cut off it will die and to be more exact, 10% of the brain capacity is lost every minute the brain is without oxygen.

The American Heart Association has released astounding statistics in that Cardiac Arrest (Heart Attacks) are the single biggest killer in the USA to date and this is fast the growing trend in South Africa, predominantly due to our sedentary life stiles but it has already been recognized and is being tasked by the South African Resuscitation Council. Studies have further shown that the quicker circulation is restated in the human body after a cardiac arrest, the better the chances are for full recovery and this is where CPR (Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation) can and will make the difference.

The basic principles of First Aid are to Preserve Life, Prevent further injury and Promote recovery from injuries and or illness and thus are the reasons why the Department of Labour legislated it into The Occupational Health & Safety Act (Act 85 of 1993) that a certain amount of people needs to be trained in First Aid within any workplace. Our focus however should also be adjusted towards our homes and public areas because we are not always at work and if such a situation occurs, we could be able to save a life.



Please contact us today to see where we could be of assistance and help you in making the correct choice.
