BLS Certification

Most healthcare professionals dread Basic Life Support (BLS) certification or recertification because typical courses prioritize speed over actual skill. At PL-CPR (Port Lavaca CPR), we believe the "card" is secondary to your ability to save a life.

• Reduce Skills Decay: Research shows CPR skills can begin to decay in as little as three months. Our instructors provide practical, high-impact training designed for long-term mastery.
  
• Built-In Muscle Memory: Don’t just watch a screen and hope you remember the sequence. We provide plenty of hands-on practice and personalized feedback so your response becomes second nature.
  
• Overcome the "Fear of Freezing": We replace the anxiety of an emergency with the empowerment of being prepared. Our low-stress environment ensures you leave confident, not just certified.
  
• Instruction for Professionals, by Professionals: We move past the "box-checking" mentality. Our AHA Instructor-led classes focus on the high-stakes reality of your medical career.

At its core, BLS is more than just CPR; it's specialized training for healthcare settings. 

Learn CardioPulmonary Resuscitation (CPR), Automated External Defibrillator (AED) usage, and how to respond to choking emergencies. 

This training extends to care for adults, children, and infants, ensuring a well-rounded skill set.

For new students, course time can range from 3 to 4 1/2 hours, depending on the curriculum.

BLS is also known as CPR for Healthcare. Delve into the primary differentiators, including the critical importance of pulse checks, specialized responses to children and infants, and the management of secondary cardiac arrest.

In a high-stakes emergency, you need more than just a certification card. You need the ability to act without hesitation. Our AHA Instructor-led classes move beyond the screen to provide hands-on, practical training that builds genuine skill mastery. We replace the fear of freezing with the confidence of muscle memory. You will leave our classroom feeling empowered, fully prepared to lead a rescue and save a life when every second counts.

Explore the practical applications of BLS in various healthcare environments, such as: 

• medical and dental offices
• hospital and cardiac care units
• ambulance and emergency response  

While BLS is comprehensive, it's essential to note that it does not include First Aid training. This certification focuses on life-saving skills crucial in hospital and prehospital settings.
