A 77-year-old man was revived and rushed to the hospital after being found unresponsive at his residence in San Vicente del Raspeig, reported the Guardia Civil. The incident occurred on September 22nd when the 112 control center signaled the Guardia Civil that the man had fallen in the shower and was not reacting. Guardia Civil agents, SAMU emergency medical personnel, a basic life support squad, Local Police, and firefighters were dispatched to the scene.
Firefighters had to first gain entry into the home before the man could receive medical attention. Medical professionals initiated cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), with a Guardia Civil officer experienced in first aid alternating to maintain the procedure. Following persistent efforts, the vital signs of the man were revived.
The emergency teams then collaborated to transport him onto a stretcher. Due to his weight and the confined space inside the dwelling, this task proved challenging. He was then transported to the hospital via ambulance.
