Automated External Defibrillation

An AED or ‘shock box’ as it is now commonly known, is becoming more popular in both work places and public venues. Over 700,000 people suffer a Sudden Cardiac Arrest (SCA) each year according to the UK Resuscitation Council. The use of an AED greatly improves the casualties chances of survival if attached with the first few minutes.

• No previous knowledge required
• Course is 4 hours in total
• Includes Basic Life Support (CPR) training

This course is a mixture of foundation theory and practical application. Using an AED can seem a daunting task; therefore practical application allows the candidates to develop their confidence within the newly acquired skill.
