"When every second counts, Community First Responders can make the difference between life and death." Thank you to @IrishTimes for the article, with 2025 marking 20 years since the CFR scheme began. Read the full piece here: bit.ly/3RBOE5F
At the end of last month there were 326 active CFR groups that responded to 1106 calls - that's more than 35 responses every single day in March! If you're interested in helping your community and learning life-saving skills; go to becomeacfr.ie & find your local group
The National Ambulance Service is delighted to support the CFR groups and all their work as First Responders providing assistance to their fellow islanders when they need it.
Well done to the @Community_NAS team, who oversee the establishment and development of CFR schemes all over Ireland and our islands. CFRs make a real difference to their communities, and no where is this more visible than on the islands.
Closing date for nominations is the 10th of April
You can now send in nominations for this year's NAS Community Awards. It might be an instructor who engages in outstanding community training or a volunteer who develops a new way to supporting their community - you tell us! To nominate someone, go to: bit.ly/43FYJ8O
Thanks to Abbey O'Brien for this amazing art piece done for Kildare Town CFR group. We have to agree with Abbey, it takes a big heart to be a CFR volunteer and we are so thankful for all the volunteer responders across the CFR network.
Last week, NAS attended a Road Safety event and demo in Fermoy, Cork. Pictured here with the group are RTC survivor Mark, and Leo, father of an RTC victim. Thanks to Paramedics Cian and Mark, and Community Engagement Officer Stephen who attended the event.
In some cases, dispatching a first responder scheme is the most appropriate response. Registered Community First Responders (CFRs) are linked to the National Ambulance Service’s call taking/dispatch function. Find out more at becomeacfr.ie
delighted to work with HSE Primary Care Nursing Teams from across the Island Communities in the North and West regions to deliver an Emergency First Responder course. Island Nurses work closely with the Ambulance Service in responding to emergency calls on the Islands.
