CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation) Essentials

A 30-minute course designed to provide the theoretical knowledge needed to provide Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation in the event of an emergency where a casualty has stopped breathing and does not have a pulse. If basic cardio-pulmonary resuscitation is not given, a casualty will die within four minutes. These techniques can keep a casualty alive until qualified medical attention arrives.
