When someone’s heart suddenly stops, knowing CPR can make a lifesaving difference.

Bystander CPR can double or even triple a person’s chance of survival. World Restart a Heart Day is an opportunity to bring that message to more people and encourage everyone to learn how to help.

To support this global effort, Laerdal teams across countries and time zones came together for our 24-hour CPR Challenge. From one location to the next, teams kept compressions going for 24 continuous hours to raise awareness of the importance of bystander CPR.

Our challenge lasted 24 hours. The importance of being ready to help continues every day. Learn CPR, practice your skills, and prepare to help. ❤️

Even highly skilled clinicians can be limited by systems that don’t support them.

In our recent webinar, Dr. Victoria Brazil and Dr. Roxane Gardner explored how simulation can help teams look beyond individual performance to examine the workflows, environments, relationships, and processes that shape care.

Training remains essential, but it can’t address every barrier healthcare teams face.

How do teams maintain pediatric readiness when opportunities to care for critically ill children can be limited?
 
Low-frequency, high-risk events call for deliberate practice. Pediatric simulation creates opportunities to rehearse age-specific assessment and interventions, refine team coordination, and identify gaps that may not surface in routine care.
 
That focus on readiness was at the center of our presence in the AAP Experience booth this weekend at the AAP National Conference, featuring the new SimJunior, SimNewB, Premature Anne, and Little Anne QCPR.
 
From premature newborns to school-age children, meaningful practice starts with training that reflects the patients teams care for. The goal is to carry that learning into clinical practice, with teams prepared to recognize changes, make decisions, and respond together.

This week at EMS World 2026, we explored what it takes to strengthen emergency care across every community.

From preparing teams for maternal emergencies with MamaAnne to practicing critical interventions such as whole blood transfusions, each experience reflected a broader goal: helping EMS teams build the skills and confidence to respond effectively across a wide range of emergencies.

That also means creating training that reflects the diversity of the patients they serve and supporting greater access to high-quality education in rural communities and maternal care deserts.

How can we continue making realistic, inclusive training more accessible in every community?
