Ft Lauderdale CPR Training &
Certification Classes
OSHA 29 CFR 1910.151
CPR training & certification classes or CPR AED
(Automated External
Defibrillator) training can make the difference between life and death in a medical emergency
in your Ft Lauderdale facility.
All Ft
Lauderdale CPR training & certification classes are not the same. Some Ft Lauderdale or South Florida
CPR Training Centers will try to tell you that they can be in and out in no time at all. The only thing this Ft
Lauderdale company wants is your money and they are selling you a CPR certification card to get
it.
It typically
takes less than four hours in to learn CPR-AED and it is the most important medical course you can
take. CPR and defibrillation is performed on victims who are not breathing and do not have a
pulse. There
is no greater emergency.
CPR has the
effect of getting much-needed oxygen to the brain, where it can keep the nerves of the brain alive long enough
for someone to get the patient's heart beating again.
The average response
time in Souith Florida including the greater Ft Lauderdale area for “Emergency Rescue” is 7 to 9 minutes but
could be as long as 20 minutes. Brain cells start dying immediately without oxygen, and irreversible brain
damage starts somewhere around 4 minutes. Without immediate CPR the chances of survival are
small. The
question that must be asked is; what kind of life style will that person lead if someone doesn’t
intervene?
47% of all
heart attack and stroke victims die before emergency rescue arrives.
Is your Ft Lauderdale based business prepared for a medical
emergency? If you or a coworker suffers from a heart attack or sudden cardiac arrest, will someone be prepared
to get involved and preform CPR and use an AED? Make your Ft Lauderdale workplace a vital link in the “Chain
of Survival.”

How to choose a good CPR
training company in Ft Lauderdale, ask questions:
-
Are you insured?
-
How many manikins will you bring?
-
What is the instructor to student
ratio?
-
Are you going over Universal Precautions in depth
so we can protect ourselves?
-
How much hands on time will we get?
-
If you are doing CPR for children and infants, does
the instructor evaluate everyone for that as well?
-
Do we just watch a video and take a
test?
-
Does everyone get a CPR card?
-
Does everyone in the class get hands-on
training?
-
Do you do scenario based training for the AED
too?
-
Do you go over calling 9-1-1?
There should be manikins
available for each student in the CPR training &
certification class to practice doing chest compressions. You can't get the feel of doing
compressions correctly by just watching a movie. Good instructors see how students learn and adjust to
individual needs.
Don't just get shown how an
automated external defibrillator works, you want everyone in the class to have a chance at using one. Make sure
you do scenario based training, that is when stress comes in and students learn how to deal with
it.
Make sure your CPR training & certification class covers everything you need. If
you're confused in any way, don't hesitate to ask your instructor to clear it up.
