Basic Life Support (BLS) certification is required by many healthcare employers. This training covers multiple emergency rescue options. Healthline First Aid classes use practical skills training with manikins to simulate real world conditions.
BLS is sometimes interchangeable with CPR certification on job applications. However, CPR courses are not always at the same level of BLS certification for healthcare professionals. Check with your employer to see which certification is required at your healthcare facility. Healthline First Aid offers many CPR courses along with our BLS classes.
Healthline First Aid’s BLS CPR class in Milwaukee includes skills practice and testing, as well as a 25 question multiple choice test. The approximate time to complete the course is 4 hours though total time varies based on class size. All of our Wisconsin CPR BLS classes provide certification from the American Heart Association.
Wisconsin BLS certification maintains validity for two years before requiring renewal. This is because lifesaving rescue techniques are always evolving. Learn the latest and stay up-to-date with recertification.
