Designed for health care personnel.

This class will train participants to save lives of victims in cardiac arrest through high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR). The American Heart Association designed the BLS Provider Course to prepare healthcare professionals to know how to perform CPR in both in-and-out of hospital settings. This course trains participants to promptly recognize cardiac arrest, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations, and provide early use of an automated external defibrillator (AED), as part of a team and individually. This course also teaches how to relieve choking. The course includes adult, child and infant rescue techniques.

This class consists of two parts: the online HeartCode module and the test-out session. The American Heart Association’s HeartCode® BLS web-based training must be completed prior to registering for a Test-Out Session. This training is can be accessed online at: American Heart Association eLearning.
