A new specially trained Kilkenny emergency response group is set up
From this week's Urlingford Notes
A specially trained group has been created to service the Urlingford, Graine, Woodsgift, Gortnahoe areas (and all points in between), for those who may be experiencing any of the following: Heart attack/chest pain symptoms; breathing difficulties; choking symptoms; stroke; cardiac arrest.
This group replaces the Defibrillator Group which was previously in place. For help dial 999 or 112 and ask for an ambulance - the person you speak to will alert the group. It is available in - Emeralds GAA grounds; Murphy’s Pharmacy (*new - replaces the unit at rear of Church); Ely’s Inver Service Station; Campion Fuels, Gortnahoe Community Hall; Gortnahoe NS; Graine Church Hall.
Training on CPR and the use of an AED is available. Further info from northkilkennycfrgroup.com
