CPR AED Training Online For Emergencies

By Jaclyn Hurley


Many positions require attendance of lifesaving emergency courses but you may not have the time to attend one in your city. One method of making this less stressful and easier to attend is taking CPR AED training online. The opportunity to take the course at your leisure may be just what you need to fit it in your busy schedule. You can work at your own pace and review the videos several times if necessary to help you understand the procedures and examples. This will be of great assistance in saving lives.

The type of employees who may be required to take these classes may include lifeguards, healthcare personnel, day care workers, lifeguards, restaurant employees, and personal trainers. Parents and grandparents may choose to take the training to be prepared if something happens to their children or grandchildren. Look for instruction that is job-specific. For example, restaurant employees need to be ready to react to a variety of situations which may include customers, employees or vendors. Day care and school employees would have to be familiar with tactics that will work well with small children.

Find a course that especially fits your needs, budget and time frame. Be sure they are a recognized and licensed site before paying any enrollment fees or tuition. Compare pricing as it can vary widely but remember that these web courses are usually much less expensive than regular classes.

These courses consist of learning how to react when it appears that someone is having a heart attack. Stressing that time is of the essence is the most important aspect of the instruction. Minutes can mean death to an individual so the first step is to determine if an individual is actually having a heart attack.

The knowledge of the steps to apply CPR until the time that an AED can be procured is absolutely essential. After that, attaching an AED machine to the victim is relatively easy as the voice recording guides the individual through the basic steps. Your classes should include live videos, easy-to-follow instructions, illustrations and graphics to ensure that all instruction is crystal clear.

Remember to take complete notes and study them and also the techniques that are introduced to the students. A test will be given at the end of the course and it is important to be prepared for the questions they may ask. Ask a friend or relative to take the training with you to make it more interactive and interesting. However, they will need their own computer access and registration to attend the classes. The more individuals who are trained, the safer citizens will be in times of emergency.

A temporary card and/or certificate is usually issued after taking the exam and passing it. The permanent versions should arrive in the mail within a few days or weeks. The certification is good for at least two years. It is very important that training take place after certifications are expired as regimens and technology may have changed.

Knowing how to react in a critical emergency situation is vital to the victim and his family. You never know - the emergency could be with your own child, a customer, friend or a complete stranger. The essential skills in these life or death situations could mean the difference between tragedy and triumph.
