Are CPR and first aid the same?

No, they don’t.

CPR is the act of applying 30 strong chest compressions followed by two large breaths into the victim’s mouth to restart the heart and lungs. First aid is assisting an ill or injured person until help comes. First aid encompasses all techniques for assisting an ill or injured sufferer, regardless of the nature of the injury. As a result, CPR is one of the best methods for first aid courses on the Sunshine Coast. Rolling a vomiting patient into the recovery position, for example, is part of a first-aid protocol.
