  • Speaking of 15 minutes, the good news is that most serious accidents will be dealt under the 15min threshold, so applying the tournequet could be ok to use. Or is that just being hopeful?

  • In inner London if it's serious and described correctly when the 999 call is made then they will get there within 15min. Very useful understanding the wording 999 operators need to hear about the injured people rather than lots of panic and faff.

    At past first aid things I did they stressed that using an AED improves chances drastically if doing CPR, really worthwhile knowing where they are on your regular routes so gyms/train stations/supermarkets. On most major roads you can't be more than 200yards from a place with one, don't leave the person alone but if others are with you and know what to do grab the nearest AED.

    I’d be interested to know what keywords are useful here if possible. Thanks
