HeartHero™ Elliot® AED, Basic Life Support and CPR Online Course

Comprehensive AED, CPR and Basic Life Support Training

This professionally developed online course teaches learners how to recognise a cardiac arrest, call for emergency help, start effective CPR and use the HeartHero™ Elliot® AED safely and confidently.

Unlike the HeartHero AED-only course, this version also covers the core principles of Basic Life Support, including casualty assessment, chest compressions, rescue breaths, AED use, recovery signs and what to do while waiting for emergency medical services to arrive.

Through engaging video-based learning, learners will gain the knowledge and confidence needed to act quickly when every second counts.
