More about this course
The purpose of this Level 2 Award in Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) and Automated External Defibrillation (AED) is to equip learners with the skills, knowledge, and understanding needed for effective CPR and the safe use and management of an AED. This qualification enables trained providers to offer emergency lifesaving first aid care using an AED, grounded in an understanding of the BLS/AED algorithm and AED use principles and responsibilities.
ProTrainings Basic Life Support courses meet all required learning outcomes and align with the Skills for Health UK Core Skills Training Framework (UK-CSTF), covering both adult and pediatric patient care at Level 2. The course is endorsed by Skills for Care and complies with the Resuscitation Council (UK) guidelines for adult and pediatric CPR basic life support (BLS).
This course covers Basic Life Support skills for adults, children, and infants, including healthcare variations for infant CPR. Topics include safety precautions, initial assessment, recovery position, CPR, compression-only CPR, CPR handover, and choking management. It is ideal for nurses, care workers, and medical professionals needing annual updates for professional membership. While suitable as an online-only course, it can also be offered in a blended format with a practical session through our network of approved instructors.
AED training is a crucial component of this course, given the increasing availability of AED units in communities and workplaces. With minimal training, these devices can significantly improve the survival chances of cardiac arrest victims. If you have completed other first aid courses, you will appreciate the importance of prompt AED use, making this course an excellent next step to enhance your skills.
All our first aid courses comply fully with the UK and European Resuscitation Council Guidelines 2021, meeting HSE requirements. This qualification, along with most other ProTrainings qualifications, is endorsed by TQUK, reflecting our commitment to compliance and quality assurance.
Companies, organisations, and agencies are encouraged to contact us for group discounts, information about onsite training, and details on how our system can be used to track and monitor staff training.
This course comes with 4.0 hrs (6.0 class) of CPD, although the time to complete the course online may be less than this. Total course time includes 2 hours and 50 minutes of video training as well as knowledge reviews, final test, remedial help and reviewing downloaded material.
The content of this and all our courses has been independently certified as conforming to universally accepted Continuous Professional Development (CPD) guidelines and come with a Certified CPD Statement as well as a ProTrainings Certificate and for online courses an Evidence Based Learning statement.
