When a patient goes into cardiac arrest or stops breathing, the first few minutes define the outcome. Chester is home to the Countess of Chester Hospital and a large number of GP surgeries, dental practices, and care homes. For the healthcare professionals working in these settings, life support training is a core clinical skill.

We are PCT Services, and we deliver Resuscitation Council UK accredited life support training from our training centre at First Floor, 2 Queen Street in Northwich, just a short drive from Chester.

The eILS course is designed for healthcare professionals who may be involved in the initial response to a cardiac arrest or a critically ill patient. It combines online pre-learning with a five hour practical session covering the ABCDE approach, advanced airway management, cardiac arrest rhythms, and resuscitation team leadership.
