This course provides essential basic life support (BLS) skills, including techniques for adults, children, and infants, as well as healthcare-specific variations for infant CPR. It covers critical topics such as safety precautions, initial assessment, recovery position, CPR, compression-only CPR, CPR handover, and managing choking incidents. The course aligns with the latest 2021 European Resuscitation Council (ERC) and UK Resuscitation Council Guidelines and is designed for Healthcare Professionals with a duty to respond.
It also incorporates the most recent CPR and COVID-19 recommendations.
This version is intended for learners who have previously completed BLS training and require a skills refresher every six months. If your existing certificate is nearing its one-year expiration, this course is not suitable for you. Instead, you should enroll in our full BLS for healthcare professionals course, which is available with or without AED training.
