12 minutes

Dr. Annalena Dehé & Dr. med. Lukas Dehé

How it all began...

First aid is a matter close to Annalena and Lukas’s hearts. For many years, they have worked as emergency physicians on emergency medical vehicles and an air ambulance, helping wherever assistance is most urgently needed. In hundreds of operations, they have found that many situations could have been improved through competent first aid at the scene. Critical emergency situations can often even be prevented through prompt action.

In the following article, we would like to introduce you to the story and idea behind 12minutes...

Why is it called 12minutes?

On average, an ambulance takes 12 minutes to arrive at the patient’s location. Permanent brain damage occurs after just 3–5 minutes.

What is the idea behind 12minutes?

First aid for babies and children differs from that for adults. It is especially emotional when your own child needs help. That is why it is all the more important to regularly practice and review what to do in an emergency. To help with this, the team has developed an emergency training mannequin that parents receive at home so they can practically practice the most important measures.

Who founded 12minutes?

Dr. med. Annalena Dehé (specialist in internal medicine) and Dr. med. Lukas Dehé (specialist in anesthesiology) are themselves parents of twins and want to show other parents that first aid can also be practiced at home. First aid is their passion. For many years, they have worked as emergency physicians in emergency response vehicles and on a rescue helicopter to help others.

What courses are offered?

The courses were specifically developed for parents and can be conveniently booked and watched from home. In addition to the detailed video courses, all participants also receive their own emergency training mannequin to put the measures into practice right away. The content is based on many years of experience with emergencies involving babies and children. The content includes, among other things:

  • Resuscitation

  • Rescue from the water

  • Burns

  • Allergic reactions

  • Childproofing in the Home
