unexpected emergencies, few things are as
valuable as enrolling in a Heartsaver course.
These courses, often offered by organizations
like the American Heart Association, equip
individuals with the knowledge and skills
necessary to respond effectively to cardiac and
respiratory emergencies. -

You learn how to perform high-quality chest
compressions and deliver rescue breaths,
potentially saving a life during cardiac arrest.
By the end of the course, you'll have the
confidence to step in and administer CPR when
needed.

Operation Many Heartsaver courses include
training on how to use an AED. You'll learn how
to assess a situation and use this life-saving
device to deliver an electric shock to restart a
person's heart rhythm. Rapid AED deployment is
critical during sudden cardiac arrests. 3.

aid skills. This includes wound management,
controlling bleeding, managing choking incidents,
and recognizing the signs of a stroke or heart

airway safely. 5. Effective Communication In
emergencies, clear and calm communication can
make all the difference. Heartsaver courses
emphasize the importance of effective
communication when seeking help or providing
assistance.

from CPR and AED operation to basic first aid and
