In times of crisis, every second counts. An inspiring story of two Cedar Girls’ students responding to a cardiac arrest emergency after receiving a myResponder notification proves that anyone, regardless of age, can make a difference in an emergency.
As a nation, Singapore’s strength lies in our readiness to help one another. By being alert to emergencies, every Singaporean can play a part in building a more resilient and caring society.
myResponder is an application by Singapore Civil Defence Force (SCDF) to alert members of the public to nearby fires and medical cases, and thereby save lives. Download the myResponder app and register as a Community First Responder (CFR) today! go.gov.sg/myresponder-app
