GET TRAINED, SAVE LIVES

CPR SESSION

ERC AND UEFA COLLABORATION

 

Description of the session

GOAL sessions are organised and offered as part of the UEFA “Get trained, save lives” awareness campaign for circulatory arrest in collaboration with the ERC.

A GOAL session is a short, compact training session in which basic CPR skills are demonstrated along with hands-on practice by the participants. Its goal is to increase awareness in the importance of CPR training, get participants excited about CPR training, and remove barriers to starting CPR.

 

Following this session, participants will

  • Understand the need for CPR
  • Recognise a victim in cardiac arrest
  • Be able to perform chest compressions
  • Be able to provide rescue breathing
  • Know about the function of an AED
