Manchester

Defibshop was born in 2005. At this point people really did not know what a defibrillator was, despite it being common place in countries like America. If it was going to happen here in the UK we’d need to educate people about what an AED was, when they should be used, how important they were in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest, the impact of using one to the casualty and how easy they are to use whether you are trained or not. For many years it has been an uphill struggle to educate people about defibrillators. Common objections include “Is it law to have one?” and “we’ve never needed one so far so why should I buy one?”, but, after years of education in the importance of early CPR and defibrillation in the event of sudden cardiac arrest (SCA), some changes in legislation, high profile incidents and saves by defibs such as Fabrice Muamba in 2012 and Christian Erikson in 2021, as well as the introduction of defibrillator training within workplace first aid courses, these units are now a natural extension of first aid provision. Today we have a highly knowledgeable team working to ensure the correct defibrillator is placed in the correct environment. All defibs deliver a shock of course, but it is important to take the environment into account as models vary and offer different functions. We have also been working with the British Heart Foundation to promote The Circuit, the UK’s national defibrillator network that is linked directly to the 999 ambulance response service and enables the operator to send a caller to the nearest available registered defibrillator, so potentially saving valuable minutes and saving more lives. Please register your unit if you have not done so already. We continue to put pressure on the Government to pass the proposed Automated External Defibrillator Public Access Bill to legislate defibrillators that are accessible to all in public places. Without this, people are going to continue to die from sudden cardiac arrest because there wasn’t a unit close enough to hand. That could happen to any one of us. After you've purchased your life-saving AED, our commitment doesn't end there. As part of our FREE pad and battery reminder service, we will contact you when your consumables are due to expire, so you have plenty of time to replace them and ensure your device is always ready for use.

Scotland,

ABC Paramedic Services was set up by our Training and Event Manager, Craig Gray. Craig spent fifteen years working in front line Emergency Services within the Scottish Ambulance Service in Edinburgh. The final six years of this was spent as a First Response Paramedic on a Rapid Response Vehicle dealing predominately with Class A / Red (i.e. potentially life threatening) emergencies. In 2011 Craig became the first Paramedic in the history of the Scottish Ambulance Service to be awarded ‘The Chief Executive’s Special Award’ for displaying the highest levels of commitment and professionalism in his job. Craig’s considerable knowledge and expertise extends to the private sector including delivering First Aid Training to Healthcare Professionals, courses at the Royal College of Surgeons, and providing Medical Cover at events such as ‘T in the Park’, ‘The Edinburgh Tattoo’ and the ‘Queen’s Garden Party’. In 2012, Craig provided Paramedic level cover as Chief Medical Officer at the ‘Urdd National Eisteddfod’ festival in Wales with over 100,000 spectators in attendance. Craig has also employed his medical skills for charitable causes, running a medical clinic in a remote part of North East India as well as being involved in a pioneering ‘out of hospital Cardiac Arrest’ study aimed at improving CPR skills. Craig takes a very personal, hands-on approach to the business and is actively involved in the strategic developments of all training, events, and projects.

Manchester

We are an independent company covering the areas of Greater Manchester, Lancashire/Fylde Coast, Kirklees and Huddersfield. Our aim is to provide quality training in Emergency Life Support and Key First Aid Skills which is easily accessible for everyone. With this in mind, we have devised a range of First Aid courses which are budget-friendly and tailored to specific groups. We are passionate about the importance of learning First Aid and the impact this can have on saving lives. The SkillSafe approach is that you are never too young to start learning these vital skills. Did you know? – Every year there are around 30,000 out of hospital cardiac arrests across the UK but sadly, less than 1 in 10 survive. In countries where CPR is already taught in schools, cardiac arrest survival rates are more than double those of the UK. We specialise in the delivery of training to schools and colleges, as such we are delighted that CPR and Emergency First Aid is to be introduced onto the curriculum in 2020. This presents a fantastic opportunity for young people to develop valuable life skills which will enable them to help others when the need arises while staying safe. We offer key stage appropriate courses for primary, secondary schools and academies. In addition, we provide vocational First Aid courses and curriculum enrichment training for colleges. If you are a club or organisation for young people we will work in partnership with you to deliver themed training or Summer School activities. Becoming a new parent or grandparent is an exciting and happy event, it can also bring natural apprehension – What happens if something goes wrong? Keeping fingers crossed can’t help in an emergency but equipping yourself with First Aid knowledge and skills certainly can. SkillSafe offer a practical, hands on course – First Aid for Babies and Children – as part of our Community Programme. Are you a carer for a partner, family member or friend? You may be a volunteer working with a local community group. SkillSafe offer an Essential Steps in First Aid course which covers First Aid for adults including those who may be vulnerable. If you are caring for someone elderly, then our First Aid for Older Ages course may be the one for you. This focuses on first aid treatment for accidents and common conditions which can affect older people.

Basic Life Support and CPR Training (BLS/CPR)

By Compete High

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.
