Heartstart


I would feel very confident 
to instruct someone else to 
help me in an emergency.

Anne B - Harby
The course will cover dealing with:  Conscious patients, Unconscious Patients, Cardio Pulmonary Resuscitation
(“CPR”), Signs of a Heart Attack, Choking and Bleeding
East Midlands Ambulance Service
I thought it was an excellent course........the main advantage
for me over previous courses, was that you explained why certain actions
were done which made the whole thing more logical.

Heartstart
We also work in association with the British Heart Foundation to deliver their
Heartstart courses, following accreditation by the approved British Heart
FoundationTraining Director.  This gives us a great opportunity to pass on
some basic techniques to local people which will help them preserve life in
an emergency.
