What is Emergency First Aid Theory?

The Emergency First Aid CPR & AED Blended Training course offers a flexible learning experience that combines self-paced online theory with essential hands-on practice. Participants begin by exploring core first aid concepts including CPR, AED operation, bleeding control, and medical emergency response through an accessible online module designed to build foundational understanding. After completing the digital portion, learners attend an in-class practical session where they apply their skills through demonstrations, guided practice, and realistic scenarios. This blended approach ensures participants not only learn critical lifesaving principles but also develop the confidence to perform them effectively during real emergencies.

Course Overview

The Blended Learning Emergency First Aid with CPR & AED course provides participants with a flexible, two-part training approach that combines online learning with hands-on, instructor-led practice. Learners begin with a self-paced online theory module that explains essential first aid concepts using clear, easy-to-understand language. Each topic includes review sections to help reinforce key information and prepare participants for in-person skills training.

The online component must be completed within two weeks of attending the practical session. Once finished, learners contact Rescue 7 to schedule their Day-2 classroom training. The practical session focuses on applying first aid skills through demonstrations, guided practice, and scenario-based exercises to build confidence in emergency response techniques.

This blended format ensures participants understand the theory before practicing critical lifesaving skills, including CPR, AED use, bleeding control, scene safety, and managing medical emergencies.
