Build confidence for critical moments through clear First Aid: CPR instruction on CPR steps, cardiac arrest response, and when to use an AED.
Focused on real-world application, First Aid: CPR turns core concepts into clear actions learners can use at work. Key outcomes include the ability to describe what CPR is and why it is important to know, define the types of interventions recommended for cardiac arrest, and describe outline the steps required for Hands-Only CPR and conventional CPR. The material also helps learners describe how and when to use an AED. Practical examples connect the subject to routine tasks, expected procedures, and decisions employees may need to make on the job. Learners finish with a clearer understanding of what to look for, how to respond, and when to raise a concern or seek additional guidance.
Any employee can learn CPR at work, not just designated first aid responders, because cardiac arrest can happen anywhere and every second counts. Supervisors, security staff and people working in remote areas are especially valuable responders. Hands-Only CPR requires no formal training, so a short awareness course prepares more people to act quickly.
OSHA's first aid rule, 29 CFR 1910.151(b), requires a person trained in first aid when there is no infirmary, clinic or hospital near the workplace. Some standards, such as those for permit-required confined spaces and electric power work, specifically require CPR-trained responders. Formal certification requires a hands-on course from a recognized provider.
Hands-Only CPR is CPR with chest compressions and no rescue breaths, recommended for untrained bystanders helping a teen or adult who suddenly collapses. Call 911, then push hard and fast in the center of the chest at 100 to 120 compressions per minute until help or an AED arrives.
To use an AED, turn it on and follow its voice prompts. Attach the pads to the person's bare chest as shown in the diagrams, then make sure no one touches the person while the AED analyzes the heart rhythm. Press the shock button only if the device tells you to, then resume CPR right away.
CPR for children and infants uses less force and smaller hand positions than adult CPR. For a child, use one or two hands and compress about 2 inches. For an infant, use two fingers or two thumbs and compress about 1.5 inches. Rescue breaths matter more because child cardiac arrest often starts with breathing problems.
