Who Are We ?
We are a group of volunteers who respond to emergency calls in the area where we live or work on behalf of the East of England Ambulance Service. Our aim is to reach a potential life threatening emergency in the first vital minutes before the Ambulance crew arrive on scene.
Community First Responders are
dispatched to the patient by Ambulance Control to an area where the ambulance
cannot realistically reach the collapsed patient within the first 8 minutes. Our
purpose is to try to make a difference in our community, helping to stabilise
the collapsed patient and, in doing so, help to keep the patient alive until the
arrival of the more highly skilled Ambulance crew, who are trained to undertake
further life saving techniques.
If the Ambulance Service can send a Community First Responder who is trained in
basic life support, the use of a defibrillator and in administering oxygen to
the collapsed patient within three to four minutes, the patient’s chances of
survival will increase by 10% for every minute that the Community First
Responder is there prior to the arrival of the Ambulance crew.
