BLS Provider (Basic Life Support – Healthcare Provider)

BLS Provider is an instructor-led fundamental course for all healthcare and emergency medical providers, intended to help you improve patient outcomes. You will learn single- and multi-rescuer basic life support skills with a focus on high-quality CPR and team dynamics in a wide variety of prehospital or in-facility settings. BLS is a pre-requisite for advanced resuscitation courses and many healthcare-related training programs. Current certification is often required for employment in the healthcare field and Heart & Stroke certification is the only one accepted by Alberta Health Services (AHS).

A 3 hour course. This course meets OH&S, Federal and Provincial regulations for Basic Life Support. BLS has replaced the HCP (Healthcare Provider) course.
