A defibrillator sits on the wall in its cabinet, charged and ready, and nobody reaches for it because nobody has opened one before. That hesitation is what this course removes. By the end of a session your staff can recognise a cardiac arrest, start chest compressions, get the pads on and let the machine do its job. AED training covers the awkward parts, not only the tidy ones. What to do when the casualty is wet. What to do when the chest is hairy or there is a pacemaker under the skin. When to stand clear and when to carry on with CPR. Kit is a comfort until the moment it is needed. Then it is a decision. Life-threatening bleed control is now trained on every course we run, so nobody leaves with a single narrow skill. **Book Defibrillator AED Training in Maidenhead with Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training and we will bring the trainer AED units to your own site, so your team practises on the route to your actual cabinet.** [Call Now: 07771 680794](tel:07771680794) ## Course Content and Practical Assessment in Maidenhead The complaint we hear about defibrillator training is that it was all talk. Slides, a laminated poster, no hands on the trainer unit. We run it the other way round: the theory is short and the practice is repeated until it stops feeling strange. ### Recognising Cardiac Arrest Unresponsive, not breathing normally. That is the call. Delegates practise the check, the shout for help, the 999 call and the instruction to fetch the AED, so the sequence becomes a habit rather than a memory. ### CPR and AED Practice Hands-on basic life support on manikins, then the automated external defibrillator itself. Pad placement, following the voice prompts, safe delivery of a shock, and handing over compressions without losing rhythm. Everyone gets a turn. Nobody watches from the back. ### Practical Assessment Assessment is continuous and instructor-led, done in the room as you work rather than saved for a written test at the end. If someone is not there yet, the trainer says so and works with them until they are. Whether you need defibrillator aed training in Maidenhead or [aed training in Milton Keynes](https://www.aim2aid.co.uk/resources/defibrillator-aed-training-milton-keynes/), we cover the whole area. **Book Defibrillator AED Training in Maidenhead with Aim2Aid First Aid and Fire Safety Training and we will bring the trainer AED units to your own site, so your team practises on the route to your actual cabinet.** [Call Now: 07771 680794](tel:07771680794) ## Course Format and Duration Sending staff off-site costs you a day of production and a set of travel expenses. So we do not do that. Training is delivered at your own premises in Maidenhead and across Berkshire and surrounding areas, on your kit where you have it, in the space where an emergency would actually happen. Blended delivery is available where it suits your shift patterns: the theory is completed online in advance, and the practical element is delivered at your venue. The compliance position and the certificate are the same either way. Emergency First Aid at Work, for example, runs as one day of about six hours for up to 12 delegates with a 3-year certificate. Certification lasts three years and is recognised by HSE, Ofsted and the DfE. Our first aid courses are accredited by FAIB; our mental health courses are accredited by FAA. Two bodies, two purposes, kept separate. ## Workplace Use of an AED A defibrillator that nobody is trained to use is a liability dressed as a safeguard. Employers ask us who is accountable for it. The honest answer is that you are, and the Health and Safety Executive expects your first aid provision to reflect the real risks in your workplace, not a generic minimum. Maidenhead makes that concrete. The town centre and Grenfell Park area hold Victorian and 1920s-30s buildings with tight stairs and narrow landings, while the outskirts have modern estates and open-plan units. Retrieval time differs between the two. We train your team where they work so the walk to the cabinet is a known distance, not a guess. Outdoor and public-facing work matters too. Kidwells Park has held Green Flag status since 2012, and Grenfell Park, Braywick Nature Park and Desborough Park all draw crowds, which changes how a response is coordinated at an event. ### Who Is Accountable Our trainers are in-house and never outsourced, led by Rebecca Sullivan, who selects the trainer for your booking and stays accountable for it. Rebecca does not deliver every session herself, and we will not pretend otherwise. Between them the team holds over 50 years of combined experience. ### Fitting It Alongside Your Wider Cover AED skills sit inside a broader first aid picture, so it makes sense to line up your appointed persons and course refreshers at the same time.

Cost depends on delegate numbers and whether you combine the AED session with other first aid training, so we quote per booking rather than publishing a single figure.
