Basic Life Support (BLS)

This course enables you to act as the ‘first responder’ until professional help arrives. It consists of:

1. 1. Assessing scene safety
   2. Checking for response from the injured/ill person
   3. Opening their airways
   4. Checking signs of normal breathing
   5. If no response and no normal breathing, starting CPR – rescue breaths and chest compressions
   6. If available, administer electric shock using a defib (AED)
   7. Continue the CPR and AED use until the professional help arrives or the casualty starts breathing normally

This is a 2-hour course and the fee is £100 (plus travel cost) for up to 30 trainees. Contact us for more details.
