Our hoods must only be used by Basic Life Support (BLS) trained personnel
We assume that you learned your BLS training as: part of a hospital, ambulance, paramedic or rescue service, or as a first aider, care worker, office or factory worker. You might be called to provide emergency CPR on transport services, a bus, train or plane. You might be a citizen, providing a ‘first-response’ CPR service to your local community.
The SARUS team can provide your CPR lead trainers with a personalised, ‘training the trainers’ service.
This will take the form of a booked, 30 minute online teaching session, hosted by one of our clinicians.
We will mail you a sample SARUS-CPR hood in advance of your training session in order to give you a hands-on opportunity to use the hood on one of your training mannequins.
To access this service please email us.

Please feedback any ideas for improvement, as we would love to learn from you!
