Qualification introduction & syllabus

Heart and circulatory disease claims around 200,000 lives each year. Many could have been saved if a defibrillator were made available. Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) are now becoming more common throughout a range of public spaces and places of work. A casualty’s survival rate will dramatically increase if an AED is available and if you have appropriately qualified personnel to use it. Not only does this course deal with the use of an AED but it also includes vital training in resuscitation and choking procedures.

A range of subjects are covered including:

  1. Responsibilities and reporting
  2. Resuscitation
  3. Choking
  4. Assessment of the situation
  5. Heart attacks
  6. AED safety
  7. Dealing with an unresponsive casualty
  8. Infection control
  9. Paediatric defibrillation
  10. AED functions
