UFS presents course in resuscitation

The Department of Anesthesiology at the University of the Free State (UFS) recently presented a free course on resuscitation for teachers. The aim was to provide them with practical experience in life support in order for them to have the knowledge and self-confidence to supply learners with life support when they are in life threatening situations where heart arrest is involved. The teachers receive training over weekends in small groups and appropriate situations such as drowning are for example being handled . The ultimate goal is to involve all the schools in Bloemfontein and the Free State. Here are, from the left: Mr Jakob Moahlodi, Dr Edwin Turton, lecturer at the UFS Department of Anesthesiology, Ms Bertie Roos, Ms Biana Meyer, and Mr Joseph Nkahle, a teacher at Navalsig Secondary School in Bloemfontein.
