Adult CPR/AED Skills Card

You Need This Card for Your First Aid Kit!

Rating:

In one of the smartest moves in years, the American Red Cross has published this laminated, fold-out, Adult CPR/AED Skills Card. It is part of a three-card reference set (this one: Adult CPR/AED Skills Card; First Aid Skills Card; and Infant and Child CPR Skills Card).

It is designed to be both highly survivable (laminated both front and back) and EASY to read and do. Students use this in the Red Cross Adult CPR and AED Courses and then take it home to place it where they need it most -- their desks at work or in their home first aid kits! I like the concept, and so do many others who have taken the course.

This is a step-by-step guide and SIDE ONE has: Checking the Unconscious Adult; Conscious Choking (Heimlick Maneuver); Unconscious Cocking (Chest Thrusts); Rescue Breathing. SIDE TWO has: Adult CPR; Using an Automated External Difibrillator (AED); and CPR in Progress/Using an AED.

This Card is currently used in American Red Cross First Aid, CPR and AED Program courses at the Citizen-Responder level. The techniques are Emergency Cardiac Care (ECC) 2000-compliant.

No home, work, or recreational first aid kit should be without it!
