Skills transfer – Burton Taxi Drivers
Life saving skills for taxi and private hire drivers
We will be providing life saving skills to a group of taxi and private hire drivers from Burton on Trent. This is a very exciting opportunity for our scheme. Taxi and private hire drivers can often be the first to come across an incident. Understanding how to engage with the ambulance service, deliver life saving CPR and use an AED can lead to the saving of lives. The drivers also take these skills into their own communities, we very much welcome engagement with their families and friends.
We provide these sessions free of charge and welcome engagement from anyone who wants to receive this valuable input. Please reach out on 07557473322 or email us on simon@burtoncfr.uk
First skills transfer session
Skills transfer session
As a scheme we had the pleasure of providing life saving skills to a group of really keen staff from the Hourglass. They work in both Tutbury and Hilton.
Knowing what to do in an emergency can save lives. Understanding when to call an ambulance and what to expect on the call, followed by CPR and AED skills all forms part of our knowledge transfer.
A big thank you to Mia who is a student paramedic who assisted with the delivery of the session!!
