" The first out-of-hospital defibrillation device weighed 110 pounds; today they weigh less than 8 pounds." - AHA

This course takes place over one day and is designed to teach the participants how to provide basic life support and use an Automated External Defibrillator which can be used to shock a malfunctioning heart back into a normal rhythm.

Fast, accessible defibrillation is a key component of treating severely ill casualties and is now possible in a wide number of venues before the ambulance arrives due to the development of automated machines which are affordable, safe and can be used with minimal training.

The training includes CPR, a vital component of life saving first aid and will ensure the participant can competently maintain and use an AED and provides an understanding of how these machines work and why the heart sometimes requires electrical input.
