I'm Justine, a survivor of an Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest (OHCA).
I am alive today due to the quick actions of my teenage children & the Emergency Services who attended my event.
I want to empower communities with the knowledge, skills and equipment to increase the survival rate of Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest.
Justine shares her miraculous story of survival to help raise awareness on Sudden Cardiac Arrest and arm individuals with the knowledge on what they can do to help save lives.

A Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) is an electrical problem in the heart where the heart no longer has the ability to pump blood and oxygen around the body to the brain and vital organs due to a chaotic heart rhythm. A chaotic rhythm causes the hearts ventricles to quiver rather than pump blood.
SCA will result in death if not treated within minutes of occurring.
Treatment includes calling 000 immediately, performing CPR and using an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) also referred to as
CALL, PUSH, SHOCK.
Signs that a person has suffered a SCA
- Sudden collapse
- Unconscious
- Unresponsive
- No pulse
- Not breathing or abnormal (gasping) breathing
Approximately 30,000 Australians suffer an Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest every year.
That's 577 people per week, 82 people per day.
Sadly, only 1 in 10 people survive an Out of Hospital Cardiac Arrest, that's a survival rate of 10%.
