Pune Airport recently hosted a crucial training workshop designed to enhance the emergency response skills of staff from various airport agencies. Held in the check-in area, the session focused on performing Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) on individuals who have collapsed, prior to the arrival of an airport medical professional, and on the use of Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) installed throughout the airport.
CPR & AED training was conducted at Pune Airport today, focusing on the importance of performing CPR before medical help arrives.
