Muslims in Healthcare - BIMA Lifesavers with Amirah Latief and Zohaib Khawaja

Amirah, a fourth year medical student at the University of Leeds, and Zohaib, a surgeon in Manchester, join Kaiynath on the podcast this week where they discuss the work of Lifesavers organised by the British Islamic Medical Association (BIMA) and how the organisation reaches out to members of the communities by holding events in mosques to teach people about essential skills such as life support, CPR and resuscitation. They answer questions on what BIMA is and what Lifesavers do, how it all began and how you can get involved, whether as a volunteer or to learn the techniques. All Muslims and non-Muslims can join and you do not have to be from a healthcare background - simply join and learn these essential life skills!
