Basic Life Support Workshop

Basic Life Support is an essential part of saving lives and can be the difference between life and death.

This course will give you the knowledge and confidence to attend any emergency first aid situation and deal with them safely and efficiently.

Its better to know it and not need it then need it and not know it.

Our Basic Life Support workshop focuses on what to do when an adult becomes unresponsive looking at how to respond to an emergency and when to call 999/112.

(Please also see Child or Baby Emergency First Aid workshops for children and babies).

The workshop covers the following:

  • Scene survey
  • The Primary Survey
  • Recovery Position
  • Resuscitation (CPR)
  • Demonstration of an AED (Practical session in 3 hour workshop only)
  • Choking – (3 hour workshop only)
  • First Aid Kits

We also offer bespoke training. If you would like something covered in addition to the standard workshop let us know.
