Understand the different levels of the CPR course

Recipients of CPR training acquire the necessary skills to recognize an individual in cardio-respiratory distress and intervene in an emergency to stabilize their condition while waiting for help to arrive. It is available in several levels, depending on your needs and your field of activity. Let’s do a check in.

The different levels of the CPR course

The CPR courses are available in 4 levels:

• Level A: learn adult cardiopulmonary resuscitation;
• Level B: learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation of babies and children;
• Level C: learn cardiopulmonary resuscitation of babies, children and adults;
• SVR – ISS level: CPR training for healthcare professionals such as nurses, paramedics, pharmacists and doctors.

You choose a level according to your field of activity. The CPR level C course is more interesting if you are not a health professional since it trains you to intervene with people of all ages.

Why should you take a CPR course?

When performed on time and correctly, cardiopulmonary resuscitation greatly increases the chances of survival for a victim of cardiopulmonary distress. In other words, the skills you will have acquired during the training may allow you to save lives one day, whether on the street, at work, at school, at home or with your family. Moreover, there are CPR courses adapted to all ages (children, adolescents and adults). Also, CPR training is mandatory for medical professionals.
