The program was an initiative inspired by our Principal following an incident at the campus entrance, where a security personal collapsed. The timely and commendable intervention of seven students, who immediately responded and provided assistance, helped save the person’s life. Their quick action was highly appreciated by the attending doctor. This incident highlighted the importance of emergency preparedness and motivated the college to arrange a structured CPR training session to spread awareness and preparedness among the campus community.
The training session focused on imparting practical, hands-on experience to participants using a CPR mannequin. Students and faculty were given the opportunity to practice the correct rhythm, depth, and hand positioning required for effective chest compressions, along with proper breathing techniques.
Under the guidance of medical professionals from PHC Mookkannoor, participants learned how to assess an emergency situation, check for responsiveness and pulse, and perform CPR in real-life scenarios. The hands-on mannequin training was particularly impactful as it allowed both students and faculty to engage actively and build confidence in their ability to perform CPR correctly.
The session not only enhanced technical understanding but also instilled a sense of responsibility and readiness to act in emergencies. The program served as a valuable and transformative initiative, reinforcing FISAT’s commitment to promoting health awareness, first aid competency, and community welfare. It successfully bridged theoretical knowledge with practical application, empowering the campus community with crucial life-saving skills.
