First Aid and Medical Training

WE PROVIDE PRACTICAL TRAINING IN THE TECHNIQUES AND PROCEDURES OF FIRST AID AND RESUSCITATION

Handling Medical Emergencies

TRAINING IN BASIC LIFE SUPPORT (BLS) AT THE WORKPLACE

Whether your customer is having a dizzy spell or your colleague is having a heart attack – you may encounter medical emergencies at the workplace that require fast and skilled action.

Our First Aid and Medical Training course provides your employees with practical training in the proper techniques and procedures of first aid and resuscitation. In doing so, the focus is on recognizing emergency situations as well as the proper execution of a cardiac massage, mouth-to-mouth breathing, and using an automated external defibrillator (AED). The training can be taken as a complete BLS-AED-SRC course (Basic Life Support and Automated External Defibrillator) or as an individual modular medical training course.

The instructors of our first-aid training courses, who come with plenty of practical experience, are all qualified medical professionals with training as nurses, paramedics, EMTs, or other similar qualifications. Our instructor team also includes three doctors. Additionally, all instructors have undergone training in didactic methods to lead courses and have been working in the field of adult education for many years.

The course is certified under the guidelines of the Swiss Resuscitation Council (SRC). After completing the course, the participants will receive a BLS-AED certification card from the SRC.

Objective

This course trains your employees in the skills they need to react quickly, decisively, and competently in the event of a medical emergency. These skills include:

  • Resuscitation, including the correct operation of automated defibrillation
  • Awareness of the European emergency telephone numbers to begin the chain of survival
  • Dealing with your own motivation to help
  • Correct use of first-aid measures in various medical emergency situations

Procedure

The participants simulate various medical emergency situations at the workplace and in their professional environment through a wide range of practical exercises. In doing so, participants will work through situations with one as well as two first-aiders. Thanks to the continuous teaching of background knowledge, we promote better understanding and use exercises specific to the target group to help participants apply the skills to their own professions.

Our First Aid and Medical Training course can – like many of our other courses – be carried out for private individuals and for professionals, in German or in English, in our training facilities or at the premises of your company. The duration of the seminar is determined based on the desired content.
