INTRODUCTION TO CPR AND DEFIBRILLATION
A qualified first aider can’t be guaranteed to be available in every
emergency so it’s a great idea for everyone to know how to do
CPR and how to use a defibrillator.
These sessions are designed to give you the information you
need to be able to know what to do in an emergency if a trained
first aider is not available.
The first part of the session will cover CPR while the second part
will introduce defibrillation.
Please note: You can attend just the CPR section if you wish but
if you want to attend the defibrillator section, you MUST do the
CPR session first.
At the CPR session, learn about:
