Bespoke On-Site AED Training Delivered At Your Workplace

In emergencies, time is critical, and having trained personnel on-site who can respond immediately with an automated external defibrillator (AED) can make the difference between life and death. At CE Safety, we bring AED training directly to your workplace, ensuring your team is prepared to act swiftly and effectively in the event of a sudden cardiac arrest. Our on-site training is tailored to your specific environment, making the learning experience directly relevant to your team’s needs and ensuring compliance with health and safety regulations.

Course Overview

A heart attack strikes every two minutes in the UK, resulting in death in more than half of cases. Each year, 275,000 people will experience a heart attack, and 150,000 will die as a result. Prompt defibrillation by a trained operator can significantly improve the outcome, raising the chance of survival from as little as 5% to as much as 80%. However, treatment must be administered promptly to be effective, with survival rates dropping by 7-10% for every minute that a cardiac arrest goes untreated.

Our AED training course teaches individuals how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) safely, quickly, and effectively. AEDs are life-saving devices that can deliver an electric shock to the heart, potentially saving the life of someone experiencing sudden cardiac arrest.

• Shops and shopping centres

Do you have to be trained to use a defibrillator?

How long does the training take?

You can complete the course in just two hours, which can be arranged to suit your schedule.

Is there an asssesment?

Your training will be continually assessed throughout the course, with a brief multi-choice examination at the end.

Do you receive certification?

On successful completion of the course and passing of the test, you will be awarded with a recognised certificate. This lasts for One Year.

How often should Defibrillator training be carried out?

AED training should be refreshed regularly, typically every year, to ensure that individuals are up-to-date with the latest guidelines and techniques for using AEDs. As our certification lasts one year, we recommend training is carried out as soon as this expires.
