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 during a medical
emergency in your Ft Lauderdale facility.
All CPR
training & certification classes in Ft Lauderdale are not the same. Some companies in Ft
Lauderdale will try to tell you that they can be in and out in no time at all. The only thing this Ft
Lauderdale CPR training center wants is your money and they are selling you a CPR certification card to get
it.
In Ft
Lauderdale, it typically takes less than four hours to learn CPR and it is the most important medical
course you can take. CPR 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 national
response time for “Emergency Rescue” is 5 to 10 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 perform CPR and use an AED or provide emergency oxygen? Make your Ft Lauderdale workplace a vital link in the “Chain of
Survival.”

All Ft Lauderdale CPR classes
are not created equal. How to choice a good training company, 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 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 covers everything you need. If you're confused in any way, don't
hesitate to ask your instructor to clear it up.
