About this event

  • Location Royal Society of Medicine
  • Organised by General Practice with Primary Healthcare
This interactive BLS course equips healthcare professionals with the essential skills to respond confidently to cardiac arrest, choking, and other life-threatening emergencies in clinical practice. Through a blend of hands-on training and evidence-based guidance, participants will gain practical experience in CPR, AED use, and first-response care.
 
Immediate and effective intervention can double or triple a person's chance of survival after cardiac arrest. This course gives attendees the practical knowledge to act swiftly and correctly, potentially saving lives in their community, workplace, or home. It is also a mandatory requirement for appraisal and revalidation.  
 
With expert instructors, an up-to-date curriculum, and an interactive format, this event offers participants more than compliance: it prepares them to save lives. 
 
 
By attending the meeting, you will:
  • Build your knowledge on the core skills that require emergency response first aid, which also include the latest protocols from the UK Resuscitation Council guidelines and skills for health about Adult and Paediatric CPR & basic life support 
  • Improve and refresh your CPR skills, AED use, choking management, airway management, and anaphylaxis management
