Adult CPR Emergency Response
About the Course:
Adult CPR Emergency Response is a critical life-saving skill for Nursing Assistants working in hospitals, long-term care facilities, rehabilitation centers, and other healthcare environments. In this microcredential, learners are introduced to the purpose and clinical importance of Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), including its role in responding to cardiac arrest and maintaining blood circulation and oxygen delivery when a patient stops breathing or loses pulse.
Through immersive VR simulations, learners gain hands-on experience performing Adult CPR while following proper emergency response procedures, pulse assessment techniques, chest compression protocols, rescue breathing, and airway management requirements. The course emphasizes quick response, correct compression depth and rhythm, effective ventilation techniques, and maintaining patient safety throughout the emergency intervention.
Learners will also practice identifying signs of cardiac arrest, performing CPR cycles accurately, using barrier devices such as CPR valve masks, and responding appropriately until advanced medical help arrives. The course highlights professionalism, emergency preparedness, patient safety, and adherence to established CPR and resuscitation guidelines essential in healthcare settings.
Learning Objectives:
- Identify the purpose and importance of Adult CPR during cardiac emergencies.
- Understand pulse assessment procedures, chest compression techniques, and rescue breathing protocols.
- Demonstrate proper patient assessment and emergency response procedures.
- Perform Adult CPR using correct compression-to-breath ratio and airway management techniques.
- Apply infection control and patient safety procedures throughout emergency care.
- Accurately recognize patient response and continue CPR according to established guidelines.
Course delivered via LMS and requires an Oculus VR headset for hands-on VR simulations.
