NYC Healthcare Provider BLS Training
Healthcare providers and those in rescue professions that carry some liability or risk are required to learn CPR. EMC offers Basic Life Support (BLS) certification courses through the American Heart Association (AHA). These courses are designed to suit the unique needs of healthcare providers and first responders.
EMC’s BLS course teaches basic life support skills that can be applied in both pre-hospital and in-facility settings. The course primarily focuses on teaching CPR. Participants in these courses learn how to recognize life-threatening emergencies, give chest compressions, deliver ventilations, and use an AED. The course also teaches team dynamics to support multi-rescuer resuscitation.
Participants learn how to react to emergencies concerning victims of all ages, from infants to adults. The hands-on nature of BLS training helps to reinforce learning and proficiency. In addition to delivering the core content found in most professional resuscitation courses, EMC’s BLS certification course helps students build their critical thinking and clinical decision-making skills.
Onsite BLS Training with Flexible Scheduling Options
EMC’s courses are highly flexible, so organizations can tailor the coursework to their protocols and the needs of participants. We offer in-person classes for those who prefer traditional learning environments. We also offer blended learning, which combines online presentations and coursework with in-person skills sessions. We are available to train your staff on weekdays, weekends, and evenings.
Who Should Take the BLS Course?
Generally speaking, any healthcare provider or public safety professional should have a BLS certification. Basic Life Support refers to the care that healthcare providers and first responders provide to those who are experiencing cardiac arrest, obstructed airway, or respiratory distress.
Basic Life Support is used when the victim could lose their life without help. Some of the occupations that most commonly require BLS training include the following:
• Doctors, nurses, and hospital workers
• Police and firefighters
• EMTs and paramedics
• Dentists
A BLS certification is nationally accepted. It lasts two years and students receive access to course material throughout that time. There are online BLS renewal options available, making it easy for people to review relevant information and renew their certifications at their own pace.
