How to Survive a Heart Attack Alone After 60 — 7 Life Saving Steps
Channel: Dr. Kingswell: Blood Pressure After 60
Host: Dr. Kingswell
If you are over 60 and live alone, a heart attack is a scenario we must prepare for calmly and clearly. When an emergency strikes, panic wastes time, and in a cardiac event, time is heart muscle.
In this video, I walk you through 7 practical, life-saving steps based on UK emergency service and NHS guidance. These steps are designed to help you get professional help as quickly as possible and stay stable until the paramedics arrive.

The 7-Step Survival Plan:
Step 7: The "One-Minute System": Keep your full address, postcode, and entry instructions on a card by your phone today.
Step 6: Recognise the "Quiet" Symptoms: It isn't always a "movie-style" chest pain. Watch for jaw/arm pain, sudden nausea, or overwhelming anxiety.
Step 5: Call 999 Immediately: Do not call a family member first. Do not call 111. Ask for an ambulance and say: "I think I'm having a heart attack."
Step 4: Unlock the Door: If you can do so safely, unlock your front door. Paramedics cannot help you if they are stuck outside.
Step 3: Sit Upright & Rest: Stop all activity. Sit in a comfortable, supported position to reduce the strain on your heart.
Step 2: Aspirin (If Safe): The NHS advises chewing and swallowing one 300mg Aspirin, provided you are not allergic and have no medical reason to avoid it.
Step 1: The "Cooling" Breath: Breathe in for 4 seconds and out for 6 (like cooling a hot drink). This slows the panic spiral and keeps you conscious.

What NOT to Do:
Do NOT drive yourself to A&E: Ambulance crews have life-saving equipment that your car does not.
Do NOT "wait and see": Heart attack symptoms can be vague. If it feels wrong, call 999.
Do NOT search the internet for "cough CPR": This is a dangerous myth. Stick to the medical steps outlined in this video.
