The certification is Basic Life Support (BLS) for Healthcare Providers.

CLASS FORMAT

100% IN-PERSON. No Online Component.

CLASS CONTENT

• Ages: adult, child, and infant
• Single-rescuer and multiple rescuer response
• Identifying and managing Cardiac Arrest and Respiratory Arrest
• Pediatric Respiratory Failure
• Special Considerations: Maternal Cardiac Arrest, Opioid-Associated Life-Threatening Emergencies, Advanced Airway
• Team Dynamics
• Chest Compression Fraction
• Responsive Choking
• Unresponsive Choking

CLASS STRUCTURE

• Students watch instructional videos regarding each specific topic.
• Engaging classroom discussion solidifies knowledge required for the final exam.
• Students choose their own teams and practice skills using peer-to-peer real-time corrective feedback. Students learn to function as individual responders and as part of a group.
• Manikins with feedback devices help students find the correct compression tempo and depth.
• Real-time practice scenarios offer adequate time for students to develop confidence and skills prior to scenario tests.
• Certifications are issued same-day, usually at the end of class. Students will claim their certification card using the email they provide at registration.

CERTIFICATION REQUIREMENTS

To receive certification, AHA requires students to perform skills to a standard that demonstrates proficiency. Please review all physical and cognitive performance requirements below.

Physical Performance Requirements

Performing CPR is physically demanding. All students must demonstrate the required skills for class. There are NO EXCEPTIONS to this requirement.

Students should not register for class if they feel they are unable to perform 2 minutes of high-quality compressions on an adult manikin. Inability to fulfill these requirements will result in NO CERTIFICATION and NO REFUND.

Students must demonstrate consecutive high-quality compressions, high-quality ventilations with a bag-mask device, and cognitive understanding and application of BLS skills during cardiac and respiratory arrest in a single-rescuer and multi-rescuer team.

CPR SKILLS

• ADULT Compressions: perform 2 minutes of 30 compressions, 2" deep with full recoil, at a rate of 100-120 beats per minute. Give 2 breaths between each. set of 30 compressions. Manikins give real-time objective feedback regarding tempo and depth.
• ADULT Ventilations: After each set up 30 compressions, provide 2 effective ventilations in under 10 seconds, then return to compressions. Students may use a bag-valve mask and/or pocket mask. Each breath should be given over 1 second and create an appropriately-sized chest rise on the manikin.
• INFANT Compressions: 30 (single-rescuer) or 15 (multiple-rescuer) compressions, 1-1/2" deep with full recoil, at a rate of 100-120 beats per minute.
• INFANT Ventilations: After each set of 15 or 30 compressions, provide 2 effective ventilations in under 10 seconds, then return to compressions. Students may use a bag-valve mask and/or pocket mask. Each breath should be given over 1 second and create an appropriately-sized chest rise on the manikin.
• AED for Adult and Infant: student must turn on the AED and then follow audible prompts, apply pads correctly, ensure safety of all participants via effective communication, and leave AED and pads on for the duration of the scenario.

RESCUE BREATHING SKILLS

• Adult Rescue Breathing: 1 breath every 6 seconds
• Child Rescue Breathing: 1 breath every 3 seconds
• Infant Rescue Breathing: 1 breath every 2 seconds

If the child/infant has a pulse of less than 60 beats per minute, with signs of poor perfusion despite adequate oxygenation, begin CPR.

CONSCIOUS CHOKING SKILLS

• INFANT: Repeated sets of 5 back slaps followed by 5 chest thrusts until infant goes unresponsive
• ADULT/CHILD: Abdominal and/or chest thrusts until person goes unresponsive

UNCONSCIOUS CHOKING SKILLS

• Immediately start CPR, starting with compressions. Visually check the airway before giving breaths.

Cognitive Performance Requirements

• Students must pay attention to all videos played during class.
• Students are highly encouraged to be verbally engaged during class to help solidify knowledge. Many students report that verbal engagement tends to be more effective than note-taking.
• Students must be able to integrate verbal feedback from instructor into the scenario practiced on a manikin.
• Students must be able to identify and treat cardiac arrest and respiratory failure/respiratory arrest.
• COGNITIVE TEST: Students must answer 21 out of 25 questions correctly on the final exam (offered verbal, written, or electronic). The class is purposefully designed to prepare the student for the final exam. All 25 questions will be prepared for verbally throughout the duration of class; the final exam should feel like a summary of what you have already learned and practiced. By the end of class, most students report feeling "very well-prepared" for the final exam. This test is open-source, and students can use any resource (including Provider Manual) to answer questions on the exam.
