Why Do I Need Safety Training?
When it comes to refresher health and safety training, the standards in some instances (like forklifts) are very specific: operators must be re-evaluated every three years to see if they are still competent to operate the equipment. Best practices say to apply this same rule to all types of equipment.
A so-called “free-pass” cannot be awarded based on experience, age, or time on the job. The extent of the evaluation is to be determined by the employer but should include a written and practical examination that prove continued competency.

CPR & AED Frequently Asked Questions
The 3 steps of CPR can be abbreviated to CAB—Compressions, Airway, Breathing. When a heart stops beating, or is only quivering, blood stops flowing throughout the body. CPR is when a person performs chest compressions and gives breaths to a patient who has no pulse or who isn’t breathing. Chest compressions, combined with breathing into the patient, help circulate the oxygenated blood throughout the body and into the brain in order to resuscitate the victim.
No, CPR is not 15 compressions to 2 breaths. Perform 30 compressions to 2 breaths. The average rate should be 100-120 compressions per minute, meaning that 30 compressions should take you between 15 and 18 seconds.
You should use an AED if you see someone suddenly collapse and discover that they aren’t breathing and don’t have a pulse.
Our CPR & AED training only covers how to perform CPR and use an AED. Our First Aid training covers CPR & AED plus other essential lifesaving skills, like controlling bleeding, treating shock, and more.
