" Families whose loved ones are recovering from heart attacks have been given life-saving training in case it happens again. The British Red Cross linked up with the Poole Heart Support Group to offer first aid training in this pioneering project, which launched this month. Patients are now referred to the group when they are discharged from the cardiac unit at Poole Hospital. Red Cross First aid trainer Peter Juniper said: 'Knowing how to spot the signs of a heart attack, and how to help in those first few minutes is vital in being able to save someone's life, and can reduce how long it will take to recover in the long run'" - Daily Echo
