NHS staff who used their resuscitation skills to help save the lives of two fellow football fans have recently topped up their training, so they are always ready to put their advanced lifesaving skills to the test.
South Tyneside and Sunderland NHS Foundation Trust ran the two-day advanced life support and resuscitation course for 24 colleagues, including junior doctors and nurses.
This comes after a number of football-related emergencies which have arisen across the North East, with incidents taking place at St James Park in Newcastle, the Stadium of Light in Sunderland.
