Sudden cardiac arrest can happen anywhere, and the first few minutes are the most critical. This online awareness course is designed to give you the fundamental knowledge required to recognize a cardiac emergency and take immediate action.
This program focuses specifically on the two most important tools in the “Chain of Survival”: CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and the AED (Automated External Defibrillator). Since this is an awareness-only session, we focus on high-impact, easy-to-remember techniques that anyone can use to keep a victim stable until professional medical help arrives.
