Fifth-Year Students Gain Life-Saving Skills Through Cardiac First Response Training

7 Nov 2024

Fifth- year students took part in Cardiac First Response training workshops delivered by the Department of Paramedicine in October and early November.

These workshops provided practical skills in CFR and BLS and were delivered by Paul Traynor Advanced Paramedic with the National Ambulance Service, in collaboration with School staff Dr Maria Donovan, Dr Aoife Fleming, Dr Ken Devine, Dr Teresa Barbosa, Ms Ruth McCarthy and Dr Kevin Murphy.  

This interprofessional collaboration between the Department of Paramedicine and the School of Pharmacy is a fantastic initiative, providing students with a vital, life-saving skill that they can take into practice and their communities. Sincere thanks to our colleagues in the Department of Paramedicine.
