Illinois Safety Doesn’t Just Do CPR Trainings
Although Illinois Safety is known for providing Warrenville CPR classes, the small business offers several other courses, all of which are certified by the American Heart Association.
Pediatric Advanced Life Support
Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) is an American Heart Association certification that prepares students for pediatric emergencies. Using simulated child emergencies and educational videos, students learn basic pediatric life support, treatment instructions, and how to approach pediatric health assessments.
Illinois Safety’s Pediatric Advanced Life Support class is fully updated according to the 2015 AHA Guidelines Updated for CPR and ECC.
Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support
The Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support certification, which takes between six to seven hours to complete, teaches higher-level life support methods for heart attacks, strokes, and other cardiovascular-related medical emergencies.
Basic Life Support
The AHA’s Basic Life Support certification is any healthcare professional’s entryway to learning and providing CPR and responding to life-threatening emergencies. Students learn how to use an automated external defibrillator (AED) and safely dislodge items that block people’s airways. The certification for Basic Life Support class takes roughly three hours, after which students receive certification cards that prove successful completion.
HeartSaver First Aid
In the AHA’s HeartSaver First Aid class, students learn how to handle life-threatening emergencies immediately after they happen and until first responders arrive on scene. Topics touched on include remedies or life-sustaining measures for choking, heart attack, stroke, external bleeding, bites, stings, sprains, and broken bones. Students also learn what responsibilities first aid rescuers are tasked with and essential first aid responses to follow-up medical emergencies with.
