Every Cadet A Lifesaver: CPR & Basic Life Support Training Program for NCC Students
The School of Nursing, Galgotias University conducted a CPR and Basic Life Support training session for NCC cadets under the guidance of Dr. Lekha Bist. The session was led by Mr. Vinod Bhatt, Assistant Professor.
The program started with an introduction to emergency care and the importance of immediate response during cardiac arrest. Participants were taught the fundamental steps of Basic Life Support, including:
- Assessing responsiveness
- Calling for help
- Checking breathing
- Performing CPR
A live demonstration was conducted using mannequins, where cadets learned:
- Correct hand placement
- Chest compression techniques
- Compression rate

The session was highly interactive, allowing cadets to practice CPR techniques hands-on. This practical exposure significantly improved their confidence and ability to respond in real-life emergencies.
The program successfully transformed cadets into potential first responders capable of saving lives during critical situations.
