Automated External Defibrillation
Having personnel on-site that are trained in the use of Automated External Defibrillators (AED) provides the victim with rapid defibrillation access before EMS arrival, greatly increasing the chance of survival. Training includes recognition of unresponsive victims, review of equipment operation and maintenance, discussion of treatment and valuable hands-on practice to increase skills.
Basic First AidProperly applied, first aid can save lives, reduce recovery time and quite possibly mean the difference between
temporary disability and lifelong disability for the victim. Program participants learn to recognize the signs and symptoms of injuries and sudden illness. Crucial information about how to deal with emergencies like shock, burns, strains, strokes and seizures is shared.
This program was reviewed by and meets the guidelines of the Occupational Safety & Health Administration and the Department of Transportation. It has also been accepted for training day care personnel and adult care staff in all states.
