CPR (short for cardiopulmonary resuscitation) is a first aid technique that can be used if someone is not breathing properly or if their heart has stopped.

  • CPR is a skill that everyone can learn — you don’t need to be a health professional to do it
  • Try to stay calm if you need to do CPR
  • Performing CPR may save a person’s life
  • If you know CPR, you might save the life of a family member or friend

The course is provided by Rescueblue and delivered by a registered paramedic.

This workshop is exclusively for The Hills Shire Council volunteers and/or local residents volunteering within the Shire.
