Desert Heartbeat CPR offers American Heart Association (AHA) courses, including the HeartSaver First Aid/CPR/AED and Basic Life Support (BLS) classes. These in-person options are ideal for those seeking comprehensive CPR certification.
American Heart Association Training:
This CPR, AED, and First Aid course, available through both the American Red Cross and American Heart Association (AHA), provides essential life-saving skills through a blend of self-paced online learning and an in-person skills session. Designed specifically for the general public, this course is ideal for parents, babysitters, caregivers, and anyone interested in learning basic CPR and First Aid. You'll learn how to perform CPR and use an Automated External Defibrillator (AED) on adults, children, and infants. The course also covers critical First Aid topics, including the proper use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE), managing shock, bleeding, diabetes, and asthma, responding to anaphylaxis, seizures, and both internal and external injuries, treating burns, poisoning, bites, and stings, and handling heat and cold emergencies
Designed for healthcare providers and public safety professionals, the AHA or Red Cross BLS course provides the knowledge and skills necessary to respond to breathing and cardiac emergencies in adults, children, and infants. The course covers both single-rescuer and team-based skills, including high-quality chest compressions, effective ventilations, early use of an AED, and relief of choking.
This course is ideal for healthcare providers who need to obtain or renew a BLS certification. It’s perfect for EMS personnel, physician assistants, physicians, nurses, nursing students, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, dentists, dental hygienists, dental assistants, and other professionals who require a BLS credential.
CPR classes are for anyone who wants to learn the basic skills needed to help adults, children and/or infants during cardiac emergencies, whether they occur at home, at school, or in their communities. BLS, on the other hand, is more comprehensive since it’s designed primarily for healthcare workers and/or first responders, like police officers and firefighters. BLS certification covers everything that CPR classes cover — but includes additional life-saving techniques that can help those experiencing cardiac arrest, respiratory distress, or an obstructed airway.
While a BLS course and a CPR course both cover resuscitation, there are differences between the two.
