He said it highlights the need for rural communities to be well-equipped with defibrillators
A hurler from Northern Ireland has spoken out after helping to save a life on his way to work on Friday morning.
Thankfully, a shop nearby had a defibrillator and Neil, alongside a woman named Emma who had CPR knowledge, managed to help him until emergency services arrived."I was lucky to be at hand, driving along the road at the right time," Neil told Jerome Quinn after Cushendall's Bath Shack Antrim SHC opening game win.
Speaking about a personal experience relating to his own dad having a heart attack, Neil stressed the importance for widespread CPR knowledge and for rural communities in particular to be self-sufficient in this respect. Neil added: "My father had a heart attack in the golf club and made it home in time for us to ring the emergency services. A local man called Joe Burns was one of our first responders and was at the house very very quickly. Thankfully he brought him around very quickly.
