Instructors working with ECG are happy to review your resuscitation or first aid equipment during the training course that you have booked. If you haven't booked your training course yet, please visit our resuscitation training and first aid training or manual handling training pages.

If you require advice on what equipment you should have then please complete the enquiry form.

Protect yourself in the event of you performing basic life support by purchasing a ‘lifekey’ or pocket mask to give yourself protection instead of the need to perform mouth to mouth unprotected.

Pocket masks
This is a widely used device, enabling the rescuer to avoid direct person-to-person contact. It can be purchased for personal use (to be kept in a car or with a first aid kit) or by healthcare professionals for clinical areas, for only £12.

Key ring with protective mask
This is ideal for anyone. A small face mask is inside this key ring, which hopefully you will have with you on most occasions, to ensure protection in the event of you needing to perform mouth-to-mouth. The key rings come in red, black, orange, yellow, green or blue and can be purchased for £4.50.

Extracts from ILCOR Advisory Statement following an ILCOR Symposium, Utstein Abbey, Stavanger, Norway
Published in Resuscitation 2003 Vol 59 pages 11-43 and in Circulation 2003; 108: 2575-2594:-

"Most people who complete CPR training will not perform effective basic CPR even immediately after training"

"The deterioration in skills that is common after conventional training will remain a challange, although one that might be met more readily if self-instruction devices are available and used"
