What is Basic Life Support?
Basic life support (BLS) training can help provide efficient care promptly. During a medical emergency, the time it takes to get the proper patient treatment is a direct factor in the patient’s recovery. BLS training provides you with the necessary skill set to deliver effective care to improve patient outcomes.
Here are some of the skills you will learn when taking a BLS course. The information provided is from the American Red Cross website, which you can visit if you want to learn more or sign up for classes yourself!

How to Perform Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR):
CPR is a life-saving technique you use during a cardiac or breathing emergency. Listed below are some simple steps you can use to provide CPR. However, it is essential to remember that performing CPR correct can be difficult. Continue training and renew your CPR certification on time!
