Petition Action

Make baby CPR compulsory in all antenatal classes within the hospitals

Petition Details

As it stands parents have to pay to undergo a course to learn how to give CPR and how to deal with choking in infants and babies.

After losing our son, we believe that no parent should have to pay to learn this skill.

Additional Information

We were taught how to give CPR and how to deal with choking when we were discharged from the neonatal unit as Johnny had been ill. This was part of their discharge procedure, however other parents are not taught this before leaving the hospitals.

Our antenatal classes did not teach this basic skill either and all parents should be given the right on knowing what to do in an emergency.
