[vc_row type=”in_container” scene_position=”center” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left”][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]This Nationally Accredited course provides the skills, knowledge and importantly confidence required to perform life-saving CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) in line with the latest Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) Guidelines.

In addition, Defibrillator training is included.

First Aid Training Group recognises that every year there are approximately 30,000 cases of sudden cardiac arrest within Australia, with the majority occurring outside a hospital setting. The average ambulance response time in Victoria is over 13 minutes and chances for survival decrease by 10% with each passing minute after sudden cardiac arrest, making access to a CPR and a Defibrillator vital.

A heart attack and sudden cardiac arrest are two different conditions and the only treatment for Ventricular Fibrillation (the most common form of sudden cardiac arrest) is defibrillation.

A detailed description of the course can be viewed in the most recent version of the Competency Standard.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/2″][image_with_animation image_url=”4467″ alignment=”” animation=”Fade In” el_class=”course-image”][vc_column_text]
