Heartsaver First-Aid and AHA Basic Life Support (BLS) Provider (CPR) is an instructor-led and video-based course that teaches nursing students critical First Aid skills needed to respond to and manage an emergency or until emergency medical services arrive. Skills covered in this course include BLS CPR, the use of an AED for adult, child and infant; choking relief in adults and infants; and to promptly recognize a life-threatening emergency. The course teaches skills with the AHA’s research-proven practice-while-watching technique, which allows instructors to observe the students, provide feedback, and guide the students’ learning of skills. Students will receive AHA certification (Ecard) upon completion of the course, which is valid for 2 years.
Cost: $50
