First Aid Training
With our certified trainers and hands-on first aid training, we touch thousands of lives by helping employees gain the skills and reflexes needed to act quickly and effectively in emergency situations.
Do you know how much time you have to save a life when breathing and circulation stop?
If CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and Basic Life Support (BLS) are not initiated immediately, the brain, which will be deprived of oxygen, starts to sustain damage after the 5th minute, and brain death occurs after the 10th minute.
In large cities, medical help typically arrives within 10-12 minutes, but in rural areas, it can take over 30 minutes.
In critical situations, the first minutes are life-or-death moments. Two-thirds of fatalities caused by respiratory or circulatory failure occur before medical help can arrive. The faster and more effectively first aid is administered, the better the outcomes when medical support follows.
According to First Aid regulations, workplaces must have employees with Health Ministry-approved first aid certifications and identification cards, the number of which depends on the workplace’s risk level.
At the end of our First Aid Training, participants will gain the knowledge and skills to respond effectively to sudden illnesses and injuries in both professional and social settings. They will also be trained in life-saving techniques like Basic Life Support (BLS).
Our training programs at ARTI First Aid Training Center follow the principles of interactive adult education. We prioritize creating a positive, supportive learning environment, fostering constructive group dynamics that are maintained throughout the course.
