The BLS (Basic Life Support) Course is designed to provide a wide variety of Ashburn 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. The course is intended for certified or noncertified, licensed or non-licensed healthcare professionals.

BLS is a 4.5 hour course, covering CPR/AED for Adults, Children and Infants, Choking, and all other information in the American Heart Association BLS Curriculum. The intended audience is healthcare providers, such as 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. Those who successfully complete this course will receive an American Heart Association BLS Card, valid for two years.

Blended Learning Option (Online Course)

Don’t have time to spend 4 hours in class? Consider our Blended Learning Option. Complete the first portion of the course on any device with internet access (and a printer…. this is important, as you must be able to print out the certificate at the end). Then, bring your certificate to us for a Skills Check, which usually takes about an hour.

To complete the Blended Learning Option, you would need to complete all of the following steps:

  1. Purchase and complete the online course from the American Heart Association Online website. For BLS, you will select HeartCode® BLS Part 1.
  2. Complete the online course, and print out the certificate of completion.
  3. Make an appointment to complete a skills check in our Loudoun County training center. Payment is due at the time the appointment is booked, and you may view and book our real-time availability instantly.
  4. Bring your certificate to the appointment, complete your practice session and your practicals (your skills check), and your certification is complete.

 

 

Class Notes:
For MOST Northern Virginia classes, BLS cards will be issued at conclusion of class for most participants. For all other classes, and for same day enrollees, please be advised that the actual BLS Cards may be issued after class. Approximate processing time by the Training Center results in an average wait of 2-4 business days after class, for cards to be received. For immediate evidence of completion, any student may request a Course Completion Record (a letter, signed by your instructor) for immediate needs.

For our classroom sessions, you MUST have the current AHA BLS Class Textbook in class. You may purchase the book from us during registration, or you may acquire it through your own means. If you purchase the book through us, you may request to have it shipped to you before class (at an additional cost) or you may pick it up in our office before class (please contact us to make sure we are there), or at class. There is NO requirement that you complete any pre-class assignment, and most students just pick up the book when they arrive in class, but the choice is yours. The textbook is NOT required for those completing the online course.

The current book was published in 2016, and follows the 2015 AHA Guidelines.
