Basic Life Support (BLS) & CPR Training

Empowering Individuals to Act When Every Second Matters

Overview

In critical emergencies such as cardiac arrest, choking, or drowning, timely and correct action can mean the difference between life and death.
The Basic Life Support (BLS) & CPR Training by BREDO Pakistan is a globally aligned course that teaches essential life-saving skills for healthcare professionals, volunteers, and the public.

Following the latest guidelines from the American Heart Association (AHA) and the World Health Organization (WHO), this course ensures that participants gain confidence and competence in performing CPR, using Automated External Defibrillators (AEDs), and managing respiratory and cardiac emergencies.

Why It Matters

Each year, thousands of preventable deaths occur simply because bystanders or colleagues don’t know how to react in time.
Through this program, BREDO aims to build a network of trained lifesavers across Pakistan in schools, offices, hospitals, and communities ready to respond instantly and effectively.
