Football Club Invests £2,000.... Saves A Player's Life!! You Need To Get One!

from The Health and Sport Show

In this episode we talk about how a non-league football club managed to save a players life by having the foresight to equip their club with a defibrillator.  During the second half of the match between Dunstable Town FC and Hertford Town FC a Hertford player suffered a cardiac arrest on the pitch. Thanks to the great work by the match day physiotherapists and a fellow player administering CPR, and having a defibrillator only yards away, and the Air Ambulance crew the player was able to regain consciousness and be in a stable condition in hospital.  It shows the importance of having a defibrillator on site as it could help save the life of one of the players, officials, spectators or somebody passing by the stadium.... Its the best investment that club has ever made. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
