Vinnie Jones Becomes A First Aider

August 06, 2012 (Press-News.org) Vinnie Jones latest television commercial sees him tell all on the subject of Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). The former pro footballer even went on a first aid at work course in preparation for the ad in which he reveals a new technique in delivering CPR. Train Aid however has joined a number of training providers who are calling for clarity on what is the correct protocol.

The advert kicks off when a non-breathing body is dramatically thrown across the floor. First on the scene is Vinnie who explains to his peers a new way of delivering "Hands Only CPR". This new concept means that you no longer need to worry about blowing oxygen into the lungs, and instead just need to focus on artificially pumping the heart.

The advert was created by the British Heart Foundation to raise awareness of this new form of CPR. However controversy exists owing to the thousands of first aid courses that teach candidates to perform full CPR. No one questions that chest compressions are a life saver, but the body does require a constant stream of oxygen. Vinnie wraps the commercial up by telling everyone that there "should be no kissing as you only kiss your missus on the lips".

First aid at work training teaches candidates that if you have the confidence to blow air into someone's lungs then there is no time to hesitate. The full CPR protocol instructs to keep a flow of oxygen into the lungs, and then circulate it via chest compressions. Who knows one day you might be called upon to touch the lips of your work colleague, golfing partner or best mate.

Train Aid Ltd deliver both affordable and enjoyable training courses that place a strong emphasis on teaching practical skills that are relevant to real life.
