Just in case .....

Today is the day we all do our annual emergency first aid training.  That means playing with models (and volunteers) and defibrillators, administering oxygen and performing chest compressions, mouth-to mouth, Heimlich manoeuvres, etc.   All of us in the practice, even admin staff like me, do this.   This goes beyond what we are required to do and ensures that we can do our very best should a patient get into difficulties.   So far, we have only had one occasion to use it for real, when a patient had a mishap in the car park, but, as the scouts say, "Be prepared".
