Wednesday, May 22nd - 4:00 pm - 8:30 pm

Course Description

This is a course for professional students desiring national CPR/AED certification at the level of “Health Care Provider Basic Life Support (HCP-BLS).” The course is a comprehensive educational program promoting objective driven and performance based training for health care professionals that includes physicians, nurses, PAs, EMTs, paramedics, lifeguards, athletic trainers, ski patrollers, and others designated at the “first responder” level. These professionals are required by regulatory entities to achieve and maintain certification through a HCP-BLS curriculum. This course is a single, integrated curriculum that includes training in adult and pediatric CPR, multiple-rescuer CPR, automated external defibrillation (AED), airway obstruction, heart attack/stroke prevention and emergency treatment, as well as special cardiac–related situations that health care providers deal with as a part of their jobs. This hands-on course covers medical content defined by the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR), and promulgated through the publication of the most current “CPR and ECC Guidelines" by the American Heart Association. Students receive the most current content through a variety of educational methods, and must practice the required lifesaving skills on manikins and through simulations, drills and exercises.
