Our CPR and AED program gives you the latest guidelines for CPR and emergency cardiac care, starting with how to assess the scene of an emergency and take stock of the victim's condition.

The AED portion of the program details key operating characteristics and shows you proper precautions and maintenance techniques. It explains how AEDs work and why they're a critical part of emergency cardiac care. It also includes guidelines for meeting the state Public Access Defibrillation (PAD) laws, and outlines the need for medical direction.

The National Safety Council makes it easy for anyone to learn CPR and AED. We give you all the background information you need to feel confident in the event of an emergency - and help save a life. About 400 workplace deaths from cardiac arrest are reported to OSHA every year. An average time to defibrillation of 5 minutes would produce a 40 percent survival rate. That's 160 lives per year that could be saved. Employers should consider using AEDs at their worksites to reduce time to defibrillation and improve survival rates.
