Basic Life Support for Health Care Providers (CPR)
High quality CPR and early defibrillation are two key components of effective resuscitation in cardiac arrest. As preparation for a career in health care and for both the Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS) and Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) courses, all providers are required to show competency in Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) technique. These skills are practiced in a friendly, informative, and enjoyable format.
As a healthcare professional you will be prepared to recognize several life-threatening emergencies and to be able to:
- Perform CPR
- Use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)
- Relieve choking in a safe, timely, and effective manner
- Perform rescue skills in adult, child, and infant patients in both the out-of-hospital and in-hospital settings.
Upon successful completion of both a written and practical evaluation, you will receive a BLS-C for HCP card issued by Heart and Stroke Foundation, and will be prepared to manage life-threatening emergencies.
One of the keys to success is adequate preparation prior to attending the course. Purchase BLS for Health Care Providers 2010 manual. Available from: University of Toronto bookstore or Laerdal Medical vendor code RE3210E
