Did you know that following a cardiac arrest, every minute without CPR and
defibrillation reduces a casualty’s chance of survival by 10%?
Sudden cardiac arrest is one of the UK’s biggest killers, and yet statistics
show that most of the British public are unaware of the life-saving difference
they can make by performing CPR and defibrillation.
The QA Level 2 Award in Basic Life Support and Safe Use of an Automated External
Defibrillator (RQF) qualification has been designed to provide candidates with
the skills needed to administer safe, prompt and effective basic life support
and use an AED safely in emergency situations.
With an estimated 60,000 out of hospital cardiac arrests occurring every year in
the UK alone, make sure you are prepared!
