BLS

CPR/AED training for individual healthcare workers

Basic Life Support is designed for healthcare workers. The CPR/AED training course includes CPR/AED for adults, children and infants, as well as the management of choking. The American Health Association certified provider course can either be delivered in class or can be undertaken as a blended course (the first part of which is on line) in order to make it more accessible. The online part of the blended course (HeartCode®) has an inbuilt knowledge test. The in-class course requires meeting the minimum standard in a knowledge test. Both types of course require an in-person assessment of skills using mannequins. It is therefore possible to just book an in-person skills test to complement an online HeartCode® course. You will need to contact Revive by phone or using the contact form to book this.

  • 1 and 2 rescuer CPR/AED Adult
  • 1 and 2 rescuer CPR/AED Children and infants
  • Rescue breathing

Book a session for either renewal (for those previously trained in BLS), or a ‘new’ course if this is a new skill. The calendar on the booking form states the type of course provided that day. The cost of the class includes the fee for AHA certification.

2020 Edition

You can purchase the 2020 version of the AHA provider manual from distributors including AHA or Worldpoint and costs $16 ($14 for the e-version). The course and knowledge test are ‘open book’, allowing use of the manual to help with answers.

Booking

The HeartCode® course is accessible via the e-learning portal of the AHA. You must contact Revive in order to book the skills test. The cost of the skills test does include the cost of certification.

Your BLS certification with AHA is valid for 2 years. In order to stay current, you must attend a renewal course within 2 years.

The AHA certificate will be issued on completion of the course. You will receive the certificate by email the following day for courses completed in the afternoon.
