Taking a BLS Class

Basic Life Support Training
The American Red Cross offers BLS training for individuals and teams, and courses that are held entirely in person, or through our blended Simulation Learning experience, which combines online classwork with in-person skills sessions. This way, you can learn on your schedule - and in the way that suits you best. Regardless of which type of course you choose, you'll receive instruction from world-class professionals, as well as science-based information that includes the latest protocols, so you can deliver care to those in need and help improve patient outcomes.

Providing BLS Care
For BLS providers, when emergencies arise, it's your job to be able to provide care to whomever is in need. That's why Red Cross BLS classes cover best practices for delivering care to infants, children and adults. And because skills can be lost if they're not used regularly, we also offer refresher materials and a printout of some basic BLS steps that can help you stay sharp between calls.

This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.gold253 weeks agoI completed this training last week. I found that I preferred the ARC training over the AHA training. More detailed information provided. The online piece took a little time and kept knocking me off on-line and I had to complete on my phone. Other than that I enjoyed the class

Very informative. Best class I have taken so far.
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.muziani54 years agoI took the BLS class in Princeton NJ. It was the best class I have taken so far and I have been in a couple different classes that were not with the American Red Cross. I definitely will continue to recertify with the American Red Cross. I learned so much more and my instructor was great. He really took the time to go over everything and made sure everyone was doing things properly and explained something if someone needed it.

I liked it!
This reviewer rated product 5 out of 5 stars.Angie1274 years agoI’m a first timer so I have nothing to compare it too. But I did feel well prepared as a first timer because of all the emphasis on and repetition of the important parts. It helped cement it in my brain. I’d say it just needs a little more of the physical practicing. I am a particularly small person and could’ve used more practice pressing down so hard.
