European Resuscitation Council

The European Resuscitation Council (ERC) is an organization that develops guidelines and training standards for emergency response to cardiac arrests and other life-threatening conditions. Its goal is to improve survival rates across Europe by promoting effective resuscitation techniques, including CPR and the use of defibrillators. The ERC collaborates with healthcare professionals, researchers, and emergency services to ensure that the latest evidence-based practices are shared and implemented consistently. Through education and advocacy, the organization aims to empower bystanders and medical responders to act confidently and effectively in emergencies, ultimately saving more lives.
