On returning to the workplace, you will be able to safely and effectively use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED).
Who Should Attend?
This Level 2 Basic Life Support course is perfect for anyone who wishes to undertake further training or develop their knowledge and skills in this area.
It is also recommended that existing qualified first aiders who have access to a defibrillator undertake this training.
Why’s It Important?
Approximately 270,000 people suffer from a heart attack each year in the UK. Approx 33% of victims will die before they reach hospital due to cardiac arrest. When someone suffers from cardiac arrest, their chance of survival falls by 14% every minute that passes without AED.
Cardiac arrest occurs when the heart suddenly and unexpectedly stops pumping blood around the body. Unless someone begins CPR and administers AED quickly, the casualty may suffer permanent brain damage. Death may also occur within minutes of the onset of cardiac arrest. If you have the skills and confidence to use an AED, it will save lives.
