A New Era of E-Learning in the Comfort and Convenience of Your Home or Office Without the Classroom Environment
CPR is a simple but effective procedure that allows almost anyone to sustain life in the first critical minutes of cardiac arrest. It provides oxygenated blood to the brain and heart, long enough to keep vital organs alive until professional rescuers arrive. AED (Automated External Defibrillator) is an electronic device that can deliver a shock of electricity to get to return to a normal heartbeat. AEDs are very accurate and easy to use. With a few hours of training, anyone can learn to operate an AED safely.
ULearnCPR now offers a blended learning format to educate individuals who complete one or all of our online courses offered and receive CPR certification that very same day.
Las Vegas, NV (PRWEB) November 6, 2009 -- Some of the common causes of ‘sudden death’ are electric shock, heart attacks, cardiac arrest, drowning, severe allergic reactions, drug overdose etc. After someone stops breathing, he or she can survive only for 4 to 6 minutes before lack of oxygen results in permanent damage such as brain damage or even death. CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) can buy that extra time by artificially circulating oxygen to the body, until professional help arrives.
 CPR training is a great skill to have at the professional level or for personal development. Online CPR certification courses prepare one for an emergency situation and give the confidence to save lives.

The purpose of online CPR Certification Classes is to give individuals the skills necessary to prevent, recognize and provide basic care for breathing and cardiac emergencies in adults, children, and infants until advanced medical personnel arrive. These classes follow the recommendations of the American Red Cross and American Heart Association. Adult CPR Certification courses teach individuals how to perform CPR and use AED for adult victims; adults are classified as individuals of age 12 and older. Similarly Child CPR Certification courses are for child victims of age 1-12 years, and Infant CPR Certification for children up to 1 year of age.
It is not only the invaluable ‘feel good’ factor of saving a life, but also the immense gratitude expressed by the person whose life is saved, makes every effort worthwhile. A large number of cardiac arrests occur in private residential settings and in the workplace, so being trained to perform CPR can mean the difference between life and death for a co-worker or loved one. In the event of an emergency are you prepared to save a life?
