Heald equipped with life-saving skills: CPR and defibrillator training

We’re thrilled to announce that the Heald team has recently completed essential CPR and defibrillator training, ensuring we can handle emergency situations confidently and efficiently.

In a cardiac arrest scenario, every second counts. That’s why CPR (Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation) and the use of a defibrillator play crucial roles in maintaining blood circulation and restoring the heart’s normal rhythm. When administered promptly, these life-saving techniques significantly improve the chances of survival.

Heald employees underwent comprehensive training in these essential skills through the RevivR Training program by the British Heart Foundation (BHF). This online platform, accessible via mobile phones, provided a convenient and flexible way for our team to engage with the training materials at their own pace.

The training sessions focused on the importance of quick and effective action in a cardiac emergency. By learning CPR methods and how to use a defibrillator, our team members now feel a strong sense of empowerment and are ready to respond confidently should such a situation arise, both in the workplace and beyond.

We believe that investing in the safety and well-being of our team benefits not only Heald colleagues but also the broader community. With these newly acquired skills, Heald is better prepared to protect and support each team member and others outside of work in their daily lives. 

We’re proud of our team’s commitment to learning and growing, and we’re confident that their dedication to life-saving training will make a positive difference when it matters most.
