Community first responders in Lancaster
Community First Responders are teams of volunteers who live and work in local communities. We are trained and activated by North West Ambulance NHS Service NHS Trust to attend certain calls where time can make the difference between life and death. Such calls would include Chest Pain, Breathing Difficulties, Cardiac Arrest, Unconsciousness, Fitting, Arrest of Haemorrhage and Diabetic Emergencies. The responder provides care and support to the patient and relatives until the arrival of the emergency ambulance.
First responders in Galgate
Very often, the role of a responder is one of reassurance. In instances where someone has chest pains, simply giving oxygen can make a big difference. In extreme cases, they can perform CPR (cardio-pulmonary resuscitation) or use a defibrillator to restart the heart. Chances of survival decreases by 10% with each minute a person’s heart has stopped beating. So the CFR’s availability in the local area means they can respond quickly and start treatment as early as possible.
