On Tuesday, Dr. Subhankar Chakrabarti, an emergency‑room consultant from Manipal Hospital Kolkata, led a hands‑on cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) workshop for representatives of the media at the Shillong Press Club.
The session, organised by the club’s health outreach programme, provided journalists with practical skills in CPR and the use of automated external defibrillators, underscoring the critical role of quick response in life‑saving situations. Dr. Chakrabarti guided participants through live demonstrations and used mannequins to simulate real‑time medical emergencies.
By equipping reporters with emergency medical knowledge, the workshop seeks to create a more informed press corps capable of witnessing and potentially intervening during critical health incidents. Source: Google News – Manipal.
