AMERICAN HEART ASSOCIATION BASIC LIFE SUPPORT PROVIDER COURSE (INSTRUCTOR-LED)

AHA BLS Provider Course

The American Heart Association’s Basic Life Support (BLS) Provider Course is an instructor-led program designed for healthcare providers who care for patients in both pre-hospital and in-facility settings. This course covers essential life support skills, with a focus on high-quality CPR, improving chest compression rates, and efficient team dynamics.

Participants will learn how to recognize life-threatening emergencies, perform high-quality chest compressions, provide appropriate ventilation, and use an automated external defibrillator (AED). The course covers a range of topics, including but not limited to:

  • The realities of CPR/Basic Life Support
  • Scene safety and personal protective equipment
  • The Chains of Survival for adults and pediatrics
  • High-performance 1-rescuer CPR for adults, children, and infants
  • High-performance 2-rescuer CPR for adults, children, and infants
  • High-performance team/multi-rescuer CPR for adults, children, and infants
  • Use of an AED for adults and pediatrics
  • Rescue breathing for adults and pediatrics
  • Choking relief for adults and pediatrics
  • Special considerations in BLS/CPR
  • Skills practice and testing
  • Written exam

The BLS Provider Course is taught by experienced and certified AHA BLS Instructors or AHA BLS Instructor-Trainers, many of whom have professional experience in both hospital and pre-hospital settings. It is important to note that this course does not cover First Aid, as it is intended for individuals who have already completed a higher level of training, such as EMS, nursing, or medical certification. If you need both First Aid and CPR training, consider enrolling in the Heartsaver® Course.

Program Cost: $60.00 per client-student [Does not Include the AHA BLS Provider Textbook] (Can be obtained prior to or during class)

Course Length: 3.0-4.0 Hours (Course is material specific, not time specific)
