Course Overview: Basic Life Support and CPR Training (BLS/CPR) In emergency situations, knowing how to administer Basic Life Support (BLS) and Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) can be the difference between life and death. This comprehensive course is designed to equip individuals with the essential skills and knowledge required to respond effectively in emergencies where immediate action is crucial. Through a series of modules, participants will learn the fundamentals of BLS and CPR, including airway and breathing management, as well as key cardiac arrest algorithms. Module 1: Introduction to Basic Life Support This module provides a foundational understanding of Basic Life Support (BLS) principles and techniques. Participants will learn the importance of early recognition of emergencies, the role of bystanders in initiating care, and the key components of the Chain of Survival. Topics covered include scene safety assessment, activating emergency medical services (EMS), and initial assessment of the victim's condition. Module 2: Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) In this module, participants will learn the proper techniques for performing Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) on adults, children, and infants. Instruction includes hands-on practice with chest compressions, rescue breathing, and the use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs). Emphasis is placed on achieving adequate compression depth, rate, and allowing for full chest recoil to optimize circulation. Module 3: Airway Management Module 3 focuses on the critical aspect of maintaining an open airway to ensure effective resuscitation efforts. Participants will learn various methods for establishing and maintaining a patent airway, including head-tilt chin-lift and jaw-thrust maneuvers. Additionally, instruction on the use of adjuncts such as oral and nasal airways will be provided. Module 4: Breathing Management Proper breathing management is essential for ensuring adequate oxygenation and ventilation during resuscitation efforts. This module covers techniques for providing rescue breaths to victims who are not breathing adequately, including mouth-to-mouth and mouth-to-mask ventilation. Participants will also learn how to recognize signs of airway obstruction and intervene accordingly. Module 5: Cardiac Arrest Algorithms Module 5 introduces participants to standardized algorithms for managing cardiac arrest situations. Through case scenarios and interactive learning activities, participants will become familiar with the step-by-step approach to assessing and treating cardiac arrest victims. Emphasis is placed on teamwork, effective communication, and the importance of rapid intervention in improving outcomes. Conclusion: Upon completion of this course, participants will possess the knowledge and confidence to respond effectively in emergency situations requiring Basic Life Support (BLS) and Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR). Whether in a healthcare setting or out in the community, these essential skills can make a life-saving difference. Course Curriculum Module 1_ Introduction to Basic Life Support.

Did you know that following a cardiac arrest, every minute without CPR and defibrillation reduces a casualty’s chance of survival by 10%? Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the UK’s biggest killers, and yet statistics show that most of the British public are unaware of the life-saving difference they can make by performing CPR and defibrillation. The QA Level 2 Award in Basic Life Support and Safe Use of an Automated External Defibrillator (RQF) qualification has been designed to provide candidates with the skills needed to administer safe, prompt and effective basic life support and use an AED safely in emergency situations. With an estimated 60,000 out of hospital cardiac arrests occurring every year in the UK alone, make sure you are prepared!

Immediate Life Support One Day Course Cost: £95+ vat Maximum 6 people This course includes the latest CPR and Coronavirus recommendations. This ILS training course is designed to meet the requirements of ILS training laid down by UK Resus Council guidelines and is certified by ProTrainings. The aim is to train healthcare personnel in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, simple airway management and safe defibrillation, enabling them to manage patients in cardiac arrest until the arrival of a cardiac arrest team and to participate as team members. The course is run over one day and consists of lectures and practical sessions. LEARNING CONTENT Learning content in this ILS and AED Training Course goes above and beyond BLS training with this immediate Life Support (ILS) Course, learning much more about the Human Body. The aim of this ILS and AED course is to: Understand basic life support requirements. Be able to demonstrate post-resuscitation procedures. Be able to carry out basic user maintenance and troubleshooting AED. Understand the safe use of an AED. Understand medical emergencies. Immediate Life Support • ILS Training The Immediate Life Support (ILS) course provides the necessary knowledge and skills when dealing with cardiac arrest or other cardiovascular emergencies. These workshops are designed for healthcare professionals who must be equipped to deal with life-threatening emergencies. Our ILS workshops are interactive, engaging, and hands-on. We believe that learning is best achieved through practice, so our workshops involve real-life scenarios where participants can apply their newly acquired skills under the guidance of experienced instructors. Upon completion of a First-Aid Qualification, employers can be assured that they have highly-trained personnel capable of responding swiftly and effectively to any First-Aid needs. This fulfils legal obligations and contributes to a safer, more caring work environment for all. In essence, the First Aid Certification is more than just a qualification; it’s an investment in the health and safety of your workforce.
A defibrillator (AED) plays an essential part when attempting to save the life of someone who is in cardiac arrest. This training aims to provide the learner with the knowledge, confidence and skills to effectively use the this equipment in a safe and competent manner.
