Why would we need First Aid and CPR training?

Picture this, you walk by an office and notice someone slumped over a desk, unconscious. Will you stand by helplessly waiting for "someone" to do "something"? Or will you know how to help before the ambulance arrives?

We will never quite believe that a severe illness or injury will strike in our lives - we somehow think our children, our loved ones our coworkers are exempt from disaster. The fact is, at some time in our lives, most of us will be close to someone requiring immediate emergency first aid.

Even if paramedics are only ten minutes away, knowing how to respond to a medical emergency can mean the difference between life and death. Those few minutes may seem like a short time to wait for a theater ticket or a hot lunch but can literally be forever for someone with a severed artery, airway blockage or heart failure.

The MEDIC® FIRST AID training program taught by Branash will give you and your employees the life saving skills you need to be an effective first link in the emergency care chain.

AN INNOVATIVE APPROACH…

The MEDIC® FIRST AID Training program is designed specifically to make the learning experience fun relaxed and memorable. We take a hands-on approach to learning in a low stress, team oriented environment.

THAT'S FAST AND FLEXIBLE

Our First Aid and CPR training can be tailored to meet your company's requirements. · Can be taught on all shifts & on Saturdays. · Can be broken into two segments to accommodate your scheduling concerns. Tell us what works for you and your staff - we'll get it done your way.

AND SAVES MONEY AS WELL AS LIVES!

OSHA regulations require staff training in emergency first aid and CPR for most facilities; recent court decisions have affirmed that even four minutes is too long to wait for paramedic's. OSHA fines can put a serious dent in anyone's budget!

KEEP COSTS DOWN

Workers compensation costs keep rising; so do health and liability insurance costs. These burdensome expenses can be reduced through proper training of your employees. Your company may even qualify for insurance discounts by having a specific emergency action plan in place.

The Medic® First Aid program is fast paced but thorough. Our instructors constantly reinforce and practice the seven basic skills of patient care:

  • Primary assessment
  • CPR
  • Obstructed airways
  • Control of bleeding
  • Shock management
  • Illness assessment
  • Injury assessment

TO MANAGE ANY MEDICAL EMERGENCY

Our students finish the course with confidence. They know they are prepared to handle any medical emergency in a calm, correct and caring manner and are secure enough to use their new skills when needed.

AND MEET OSHA REQUIREMENTS

Most companies agree that preventing unnecessary suffering and injury is sufficient reason for training employees in the essential skills of first aid and CPR. However there is yet another benefit for your company OSHA (29 CFR1910.151 (b) ND 29 CFR 1926.50) requires first aid and CPR trained staff to be available at all times in your workplace to care for ill or injured employees whenever there is no nearby infirmary, clinic, or hospital. Fines for ignoring that directive have exceeded $70,000.00!

If you don't do it for your own serenity or to guard the safety and well-being of your employees and their families, do it to prevent some serious erosion of this years profit margin.

A simple investment of seven hours saves lives. Don't wait until it's too late for someone important to you. Call Michigan Safety Training at 248.546.8811 and book a MEDIC® First Aid training class today.
