First Aid For Life
CPR / Basic Life Support
You might see a person suddenly collapse, lose consciousness, and stop breathing. The longer the body goes without circulation, the lower the chance of survival. By performing CPR, you are able to help the person’s blood keep circulating until an ambulance arrives and more advanced tools can be used. Basic life support is a simple skill that can take just a few short hours to learn. By acquiring this skill in that time, you will be equipped to save a person’s life. Additionally, being trained in the use of a defibrillator will ensure you are equipped with the necessary skills to save a victim of sudden cardiac arrest.
