👋 We Have A New Trainer – Aimee! 🚑

We’re really excited to welcome Aimee to the Bristol Life Support team! 🎉

Aimee is a highly experienced Paramedic with a passion for helping people feel confident in emergency situations. She brings a huge amount of clinical knowledge and hands on experience, and we’re delighted that she’ll be delivering training alongside us.

If you see Aimee at one of our sessions, make sure you say hello! 👋

📢 Exciting news

From this autumn, Bristol Life Support will be offering First Aid at Work courses 🩹🚑

We’ll be completing instructor training with Nuco Training to deliver accredited workplace first aid courses.

This means businesses will soon be able to train staff as qualified workplace first aiders.

More information about course dates and bookings will follow soon 👀

Stay tuned.

⭐ We always really appreciate the feedback we receive after training sessions ⭐️

Here’s a recent comment from one of the GP surgeries we trained:

💬 “One of the best BLS sessions we’ve had. Very practical, engaging and relevant to real clinical situations.”

Our aim is always to deliver training that feels useful, practical and relevant to real emergencies, rather than just another mandatory update.

Thank you to all the practices who take the time to share feedback 🙏

🏥 GP surgeries/dental practices – when was your last BLS update?

Emergencies in primary care are rare, but when they do happen it’s vital the whole team feels confident responding 🫀

Our Basic Life Support training is designed specifically for healthcare teams and focuses on practical skills you can use in real situations.

During the session we will:

🫀 Review CPR techniques using high-quality mannequins with real-time feedback
⚡ Practice using training defibrillators and emergency equipment
💉 Run through the recognition and management of anaphylaxis, including EpiPen use
📦 Review your practice emergency equipment
📘 Provide free booklets summarising the latest 2025 Resuscitation Council guidance

There is plenty of time for hands on practice, ensuring everyone leaves feeling confident.

Our diary is already filling well into the summer and beyond 📅

📩 If your practice would like to arrange training this year, feel free to get in touch

📅 Save the date!

We’re pleased to announce that the updated UK Resuscitation Guidelines will be published at midday on Monday 27 October 2025.

The revised guidelines will reflect the latest evidence and best practice in resuscitation science across all age groups. They are designed not only to improve survival and outcomes following cardiac arrest, but also to enhance patient and family experiences through compassionate, person-centred care.

Stay tuned for more details.

💡 Did you know? A heart attack and a cardiac arrest are not the same thing.

Knowing the difference and how to respond in each situation could save a life.

This month, help spread awareness and make sure more people know what to do in an emergency. ❤️
