LIFE SAVING PARTNERSHIP LAUNCH: EVENT SUMMARY

Thank you to everyone who attended the launch of the Rotary Club of Sydney and Ambulance NSW Partnership.

Guests heard from Dr Brian Burns, emergency physician and clinical professor, and Dr Mark Dennis, cardiologist at Royal Prince Alfred Hospital. They outlined how the pre hospital ECMO CPR program brings advanced heart and lung support directly to cardiac arrest patients. Early intervention and high quality ultrasound equipment are crucial and the program is already showing strong survival outcomes in New South Wales.

Rotary is helping expand this work so more people can receive life saving care when every second counts.
