Thurles Town Community First Responder Group Volunteer Expression of Interest Form
Thurles Town Community First Responder Scheme is coordinated by Order of Malta Ireland Ambulance Corps Thurles (“Thurles OMAC CFR Group”). Launched on 6th August 2022, our group’s volunteers respond to cardiac arrest calls within 5 k.m. of Thurles town centre, directed by the National Ambulance Service (NAS), following a 999/112 call. With the possibility of high waiting times for emergency ambulances, our priority is to get get to patients and begin the chain of survival, with early CPR and defibrillation, as soon possible before the ambulance crew arrives.

Please complete this form if you are available to volunteer your time to respond to 112/999 cardiac arrest calls once a month, or more often. The information provided will only be used and retained by us as is necessary to contact you and provide you with relevant paperwork. An information pack will be emailed to you after completing this form.
