Anyone can be trained to administer the shock that could save a life. The most realistic CPR-Defibrillator Training is the one, which provide the best- prepared responders. The use of externals defibrillators is taught in advanced cardiac life support courses. Trained non-medical personnel can then use these electronic machines to treat a person in cardiac arrest

The American Heart Association specializes in AED training with over 250,000 providers trained every year. American Red Cross annually trains more than 8.5 million people in vital lifesaving skills, including AED, CPR, and first aid. Medic First Aid International can get in touch with a local CPR and defibrillator instructor to satisfy training needs. They have easy-to-use, low-stress approach to training. This gives trainees, confidence to respond in an emergency. The training programs are continually updated to reflect the latest standards and techniques.

Certain companies help responders learn to use the automated external defibrillators. They simulate sudden cardiac arrest episodes for an extremely realistic training experience. This ensures that the trainers are prepared when sudden cardiac arrest strikes. The AED Trainer 2 is pre-configured with 10 realistic training scenarios that were developed in accordance with internationally recognized emergency responder training programs. For added flexibility, instructors can also design and configure three custom scenarios using the optional programming kit.

Philips' HeartStart Trainer, CPR and First Aid instructors empowers students with awareness of HeartStart Defibrillators and how to use them to save lives. Some trainers simulate how the defibrillators will operate during a real-life sudden cardiac arrest event. Clear, confident voice instructions provide easy-to-follow directions and eight pre-configured scenarios to make training easy and more rewarding.

It is important that the responders to these courses are given proper training and examined thoroughly for their assimilation before they can be called trainers.
