Since childhood, Joseph Le Bagousse, a 19-year-old Parisian, has wanted to become a first aider. So he didn't hesitate to sign up for SAUV Life. Thanks to this application, the Samu alerts volunteers who can perform a cardiac massage within a radius of 500 metres of a heart attack victim.

This summer, the application was triggered. "I received a notification asking me to intervene in a cardiac arrest that is nearby," explains Joseph Le Bagousse.

SAUV Life recruited 415,000 citizen rescuers

The "citizen-rescuer" leaves immediately. SAUV Life has geolocated him and directs him by GPS to the victim's address. At the scene, a second rescuer arrives at the same time as him.

"We made sure the victim was breathing, then it turned out that he was in cardiac arrest. So we started CPR until help arrived," says Joseph.

Ten minutes of massage in conjunction with the Samu, then the fire brigade takes over and the heart starts again. Over the past year and a half, SAUV Life has recruited 415,000 citizen rescuers.

Votre cours de mardi m’a servi ce matin à 6h. Nous avons fait dans la nuit de samedi à dimanche un marche de 51 k qui démarre à minuit et qui longue la Bièvre. Vers 6h on s’est arrêté à une table de pique-nique on avait fait 36 km.
Un homme qui avait marché depuis Paris était seul assis. Il s’est levé et tombé.
J’ai accouru avec un coéquipier, il était tendu ne respirait pas, j’ai fait un massage cardiaque quelques minutes puis il a respiré ; je l’ai mis en position latérale de sécurité.
Il m’a parlé puis mon mari avait appelé les pompiers et ils sont arrivés au bout d’un certain temps.
Encore merci pour votre conviction, je n’ai pas hésité une seconde
