BLS CPR & AED Classes with Infant CPR in Virginia Beach

While we hope you never need to use your training, here are some stats on why you should be trained in infant CPR:

• In 2018, over 21,000 infants died, with Sudden Infant Death (SIDS) and suffocation being the 4th and 5th leading causes, respectively.
• The most common cause of cardiac arrest in young children is respiratory failure or obstruction in the airway.
• 7,000+ children suffer from cardiac arrest each year.
• Other common situations that require infant CPR include head trauma, electrical shock, poisoning, near drowning, severe asthma, or smoke inhalation.

In your training, you will learn how to —

1. Handle a baby or child properly in a crisis.
2. Give immediate relief to a baby choking.
3. Prevent, spot, and respond to infant breath and cardiac emergencies.

Having this training gives you the power to react with life-sustaining techniques. Our instructors are confident that their trainees will be able to use the BLS, CPR, and AED machine knowledge in any circumstance.

What is CPR?

Only perform CPR on infants who are unconscious, unresponsive, or are not breathing independently. Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation is a process that includes rescue breathing and surface chest compressions to —

1. Sustain oxygen-rich blood flow to vital organs, including the brain.
2. Restore breathing until first responders arrive and give more life support.
3. Revive breathing and heartbeat after drowning, cardiac arrest, heart attack, or stroke.

What to Expect in Your CPR Classes

You will learn to identify the seven CPR steps, find the pulse, perform finger and palm chest compressions, and ultimately restore regular breathing.

Gaining your American Heart Association certificate, you will meet OSHA requirements. If you need to perform CPR during an emergency, whether attending to an infant, child, or adult, you will have everything you need to help the person stay alive until professional medical assistance arrives.
