AED – Defibrillator

£399 + VAT – Up to 12 Persons

Our Defibrillator and CPR course enables someone to get the experience and knowledge needed to be able to know exactly what to do in the unlikely event that a colleague or a member of the public goes into cardiac arrest. This can happen to anyone at any time but just by having a defibrillator in your workplace and having someone qualified who knows how to use it and can perform CPR can reduce the risk of death. Without a defibrillator every minute that passes, the chances of survival is very slim indeed.
