Emergency! Paramedics Explain What to Do

Loading player...
The following episode contains sensitive subject matter for someone that has lost a loved one. We have interviewed professional experts on each topic, and taken extra care to cover the subjects with sensitivity.

What should I do if there's suddenly an emergency? A child falling into a swimming pool, someone having a seizure or heart attack, or an accident...? Do I have my area's EMS phone numbers, or the nearest ambulance service? Do I know CPR? What about medical aid info? These aspects could be the crucial seconds we need to save someone's life. In this fascinating episode we are joined by two experienced Paramedics, Wayne Broodryk & Brandon Botha, from Altor EMS, to talk about the most important Tips to remember during an Emergency. Brought to you by Epi-Max Baby & Junior - Our Family, for Your Family. Sponsored by Curaprox and supported by Jacaranda FM.
