Basic Life Support Workshop: What will you learn?
You have two options:
2-hour workshop — The all-important basics
3-hour workshop — Includes how to use a defibrillator, how to treat someone who’s choking and advice about calling 999
With both options there will be practical demonstrations, role playing and some activities to keep things engaging and interesting.
I’m happy to tailor the content. If you’d like me to cover something that isn’t listed below, just ask.
During the course, you’ll be trying out your newly-learned techniques with a whole range of equipment, including mannequins.
And… this course includes the CPD-accredited Bra Off, Defib On. Did you know that women are less likely than men to survive when a defibrillator is used on them in a medical emergency? Proper pad placement is crucial, and you’ll learn this life-saving skill.
Here’s the full course content:
The primary survey — Checking the scene, checking response and breathing
The recovery position
How to resuscitate someone using CPR
How to use a defibrillator (includes the CPD-accredited Bra Off, Defib On)
At the 3-hour workshop, you ALSO learn:

Information about calling 999
By the end of the workshop, you’ll be as cool as a cucumber, knowledgeable and confident in a medical emergency. In short, you’ll be a superhero.
