What is BLS?
Basic Life Support (BLS) is CPR training for the healthcare provider. Unlike general-level (layperson) CPR training, BLS covers American Heart Association guidelines for CPR providers in a healthcare setting.
AHA BLS courses include the latest ECC and American Heart Association guidelines. They cover how to perform Basic Life Support (BLS) and CPR. They also teach how to use an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED).
This training applies to cardiac arrest victims of all ages. It also covers multi-rescuer scenarios with team dynamics in hospital or advanced settings and using BVMs (bag valve masks) during resuscitation.
We offer in-person American Heart Association BLS classes at convenient locations serving Sacramento (Gold River), Modesto, and Stockton, CA as well as Dallas,TX.

What is the difference between BLS and CPR?
BLS is Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers. It covers healthcare-level CPR for doctors, nurses, EMTs, dentists, dental hygienists, and other healthcare workers.
General-Level CPR is training for non-healthcare providers such as teachers, construction workers, and the general public.
This CPR training is an introductory class. It teaches basic CPR skills. It helps basic rescuers feel confident. It prepares them to perform CPR in everyday emergencies.
Do I have to have the BLS textbook?
Yes. The American Heart Association requires all students to bring their own BLS textbook to class. People also call this book the BLS student manual or handbook.
Books must be the most recent guidelines, which is currently GL2025. You are welcome to bring a textbook with you to class or purchase one at registration. Books may be physical or digital, but you have a digital copy you will need to be able to access it during class.
Do you offer Continuing Education (CE) Units?
Yes, but eligibility can depend on your field. All BLS courses are eligible for CEs for Emergency Medical Services personnel through the American Heart Association. To receive these credits you must complete a BLS course and claim your CE on the AHA website.
Dental – The Dental Board of California automatically provides 4 CEUs for our American Heart Association Basic Life Support for Healthcare Providers certification. Simply keep your BLS card with the AHA logo in case an audit occurs. The Dental board will NOT accept any CE paperwork other than the AHA certification.
CNA – The CA Board of Nursing does not accept CEs for BLS courses. Please visit their site for more details and a list of nursing CE-approved courses.
What should I wear?
Class involves hands-on practice so it is best if you wear comfortable clothes that you can move around in. You will be on the floor and bending a lot during practice. If you have long hair, we recommend tying it back.
