About lifesaving training, etc.

Cardiopulmonary resuscitation for people with cardiopulmonary arrest was previously different between adults and children, but now they are unified. Originally, it is desirable to change the method according to age and cause, but it is difficult to remember and use each method properly, and it is not always possible to identify the age and cause of cardiopulmonary arrest immediately . By the fine differences, it was unified that "I can't do anything" is the worst thing.
However, it is recommended that occupations (nursery teachers, kindergartens / school teachers) and parents who have many opportunities to interact with small children learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation optimized for children. Lifesaving course III is a course to learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation optimized for children.
Also, if you do not have time to take regular lifesaving courses or advanced lifesaving courses due to time constraints, etc., why not take the lifesaving introductory course, which is a course specializing in chest compressions and how to use AED?
