CPR training at the Church of the Ascension

Following a series of medical emergencies around parishioners and the need to be medically empowered, the Parish, in collaboration with the medical team, has trained some youths in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR).

The training included how to save a life during a cardiac arrest, the proper way to begin chest compressions, how to deliver rescue breaths, how to handle choking, and how to perform a Heimlich manoeuvre.

The interesting training session was anchored by medical experts such as Doctors and Matrons from the University College Hospital (UCH), Ibadan, Oyo State.
