What’s the app? I saw one years ago but it never took off. Good concept, poor adoption.

Did a first aid course today. It was way more interesting then I expected (I am scarred by some terrible OH&S seminars). Also a bit confronting. And there’s an app you can sign up to and opt-in to be notified if someone nearby is having a cardiac arrest. So you can hightail it there and help while the ambulance comes. On the one hand I’d love to do that but it also terrifies me

GoodSAM. I’ve not looked into it beyond being told about it today (Red Cross)

I hadn’t realised they had widened the criteria to anyone with first aid qualifications, when they started it they just had off duty paramedics and similar using it. It’s a good idea, but it would definitely be confronting if it happened.

I’ve been in a few confronting first aid situations, I keep my head.
Looks like its a UK app, it’s all about the NHS and UK quals.

I was working at this joint and I had to study for my first aid renewal. The Minister came in with his grand kids to have a chat. This little boy about 4, grabbed the handle of the iron and went to pull it off the ironing board towards himself. Fuck me. I took the biggest step and managed to grab it in time. When they left someone said “You nearly had to use your first aid then. That was a real life scenario”.
