On 18 March 2026, an atmosphere of energy and determination filled the room as second-year students from the Occupational Health and Environment programme, Faculty of Public Health, Khon Kaen University, participated in a training workshop on basic life support (CPR) and the use of an automated external defibrillator (AED). This was more than a classroom lecture; it was a hands-on simulation that guided students through every critical step, from assessing scene safety and evaluating a patient to making a proper emergency call, performing CPR, and using an AED with precision.

The training was led by the QSHC CPR team from the Queen Sirikit Heart Center, whose expert instructors delivered intensive, engaging, and enjoyable instruction. They created a vibrant learning environment, building the confidence of participants to act decisively in a real emergency.

This initiative, a collaboration between the Faculty of Public Health at Khon Kaen University and the Queen Sirikit Heart  Center, not only imparts essential skills but also cultivates a new generation of heroes ready to respond in critical situations.
