Nigerian paramedics engaging on BLS training with CCTV Personnel


CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS)

CPR and Basic Life Support (BLS) training is required of many health-care professionals and lay rescuers to help revive, resuscitate, or sustain a person who is experiencing cardiac arrest or respiratory failure. 

Sudden cardiac arrest is the leading cause of death in adults and 88% of all cardiac arrest happen in people’s homes. Providing CPR can double a person’s chance of survival.......
