CRITICAL Charity Launches New Community First Responder Group In North Clare

A new Community First Responder group is now providing potentially life-saving support to communities across north Clare.     The Ruan-Dysart group, established by emergency medical response charity CRITICAL, is the organisation's third Community First Responder service in the county.     Made up of 20 local volunteers, the team is trained to respond to cardiac arrests in the crucial minutes before an ambulance arrives.     To tell us more about the new service and what it means for the local community, Alan Morrissey was joined by Edward Walsh, Head of Operations & Standards Photo (c) CRITICAL
