First Aid & CPR Training

Service Description

A CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) class is typically a hands-on training session that teaches individuals how to provide emergency life-saving care to someone who has stopped breathing or whose heart has stopped beating. The class usually covers: 1. Basic Life Support (BLS): The focus is on helping people recognize life-threatening emergencies, including heart attacks and strokes, and taking the correct steps to assist the victim. It often includes learning how to perform chest compressions, rescue breaths, and how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED). 2. Hands-on Practice: Participants learn through demonstrations and practice, including performing CPR on mannequins, so they can gain the necessary skills and confidence to act in a real emergency. 3. Choking and Airway Management: CPR classes also teach how to assist someone who is choking or experiencing difficulty breathing, as well as how to clear an airway obstruction. 4. CPR for Different Age Groups: The class usually covers infant, child, and adult CPR, as well as differences in technique based on the victim’s age and size. The goal of the class is to equip participants with the knowledge and skills to potentially save a life in an emergency situation. It is often recommended for people who work in healthcare, childcare, or other fields where they might encounter medical emergencies, but it’s also valuable for anyone interested in learning how to help in a crisis.
