Defibrillation Training AED-CPR
FAA Level 2 Award in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation & Automated External Defibrillation (RQF)
This very practical course will enable your learners to use the
AED competently and with confidence.
Heart and circulatory disease claims around 200,000 lives each year. Many could have been saved if a defibrillator was made available.
Automated External Defibrillators (AED’s) are now becoming more common throughout a range of public and work places. 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.
Duration
A minimum of six contact hours in the classroom, consisting of practical and theoretical activities.
