Description
The Paediatric Basic Life Support (PBLS) course offered by A to E Training & Solutions is a 2.5-hour training session tailored for both clinical and non-clinical participants.

Participants will engage in hands-on practice, including the use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED), and learn to respond with empathy during high-stress scenarios. The training aligns with the Core Skills Training Framework at Level 2 and is accredited by the Resuscitation Council UK.
