BLS for Healthcare Providers

The Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Providers Classroom Course is designed to provide a wide variety of healthcare professionals the ability to recognize several life-threatening emergencies, provide CPR, use an AED, and relieve choking in a safe, timely and effective manner.

Classroom - PDRE LLC - YourCPRMD.Com BLS for Healthcare Providers - Palm Desert Resuscitation Education, LLC (PDRE) - https///www.yourcprmd.com/ - 760-832-4277 - PalmDesertCPR@gmail.com

In the classroom, students participate in simulated clinical scenarios and learning stations. Students work with an AHA BLS Instructor to complete BLS skills practice and skills testing. Students also complete a written exam.

Audience:

This course is for healthcare professionals who need to know how to perform CPR, as well as other lifesaving skills, in a wide variety of in-hospital and out-of-hospital settings.

Healthcare providers that are typically required to take this course are physicians, nurses, paramedics, emergency medical technicians, respiratory therapists, physical and occupational therapists, physician's assistants, residents or fellows, or medical or nursing students in training, aides, medical or nursing assistants, police officers, and other allied health personnel. 

Features:

The BLS Course trains participants to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations and provide early use of an AED.

  • Updated Science based content: Reflects science and education from the 2020 AHA Guidelines Update for CPR and ECC 
  • Instructor led, hands on class format reinforces skills proficiency
  • Emphasis on high-quality CPR including a team dynamics classroom activity
    • Emphasis on high-quality CPR, improvement of chest compression fraction, and high-performing team dynamics.
  • Video based course ensures consistency with real world scenarios

  • Pre-briefing
    • In the 2020 BLS Provider course, Instructors conduct a pre-briefing with students immediately before the start of each simulation. The goals of pre-briefing are to establish a positive learning environment and to provide information about the session to students. In addition, teams will set goals for the case and discuss the goals they set in the pre-briefing in the debriefing. This will prepare students for success in the course.
  • CPR Coach
    • The CPR Coach is a new role within the resuscitation team. The CPR Coach role is designed to promote the delivery of high-quality CPR and allow the Team Leader to focus on other elements of cardiac arrest care, coordinate the various team members’ assigned tasks, and ensure that clinical care is delivered according to AHA guidelines.
