AED Training
Practical Defibrillator Training for Workplace Teams
Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs) can play a vital role when someone suffers a cardiac arrest.
ELS AED training gives learners practical experience in CPR, AED use and emergency response, helping them understand what to do and build confidence using a defibrillator.
Thinking About Learning AED Skills?
An Automated External Defibrillator (AED) can play a vital role when someone suffers a sudden cardiac arrest.
AEDs are designed to provide clear instructions during an emergency, but practical training gives people the opportunity to become familiar with the equipment and understand how CPR and defibrillation work together.
ELS AED training focuses on practical emergency response, helping learners build the skills and confidence to act when someone genuinely needs help.
When a cardiac arrest happens, you don't want the first time someone handles an AED to be during the emergency.
Recognising Cardiac Arrest
Learn how to recognise when someone is unresponsive and not breathing normally and understand the immediate actions required.
Practical CPR & AED Use
Practise CPR and become familiar with using an AED as part of a practical resuscitation scenario.
Confident Emergency Response
Develop the confidence, communication and teamwork needed to respond effectively while emergency medical help is on its way..
AED Facts
Anyone Can Use an AED
You do not need formal training to use an AED in an emergency. The device provides clear instructions to guide the rescuer through the process.
Training still matters because practising beforehand can help people become familiar with the equipment and more confident responding under pressure.
An AED Won't Shock Everyone
An AED analyses the casualty's heart rhythm and will only advise a shock when it detects a rhythm where defibrillation is appropriate.
The rescuer does not decide whether a shock is required.
CPR Is Still Essential
Using an AED doesn't replace CPR.
When someone is in cardiac arrest, CPR and early defibrillation work together as part of the emergency response.
Practical AED Training With Your Team
ELS can deliver practical AED and CPR training at your workplace, giving your team the opportunity to practise using defibrillator training equipment in a realistic working environment.
Training helps staff become familiar with CPR, AED operation and emergency response, building confidence in the actions they may need to take if someone suffers a cardiac arrest.
Where your organisation already has an AED, training can also help staff become more familiar with where the device is located and how it fits into your workplace emergency arrangements.
For ongoing first aid provision, organisations should ensure their procedures, equipment and staff training remain appropriate for their workplace and identified risks.
