World Health Day is not only an important reminder to take charge of our health and well-being, but it’s also a time to reflect on how we can help others during emergencies. In any given situation, knowing how to administer CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and first aid can be the difference between life and death. As part of the global movement to improve health outcomes and save lives, the PADI RTO (Registered Training Organization) encourages everyone to prioritize learning these essential skills.

Why CPR and First Aid Are Crucial

In an emergency, whether at home, at work, or during recreational activities, being able to respond quickly and confidently can drastically improve survival rates. Sudden cardiac arrest can happen without warning, and if you’re in the right place at the right time, knowing CPR can save someone’s life. First aid skills are equally essential, allowing you to handle a range of injuries and medical conditions until professional help arrives.

The ability to act decisively and correctly in a crisis is empowering. In fact, studies show that early intervention with CPR increases the chances of survival by up to 50%, yet many people are still unprepared to act in emergencies. It’s time to change that.
