This course is for all healthcare providers, first responders, and students who are seeking certification in basic life support (BLS). There is an initial class offered for individuals who have never taken a BLS class or have let their certification lapse. There is a renewal class offered for individuals that need to re-certify their BLS and have a current BLS certification.
