Georgia CPR offers affordable American Heart Association CPR and BLS certification for healthcare providers in Atlanta and beyond. Our BLS Healthcare Providers course is designed for Atlanta healthcare providers including EMS personnel and physician assistants to doctors, dentists, nurses and respiratory therapists. These professionals must have a BLS Certification (or BLS recertification card) documenting successful completion of a CPR course. BLS Certification ensures that healthcare providers have resuscitation skills befitting of professionals. Patients expect CPR performed in a medical setting to be at a higher level than that on a construction site. BLS skills include using a bag valve mask, checking pulse and working well as a team. Our BLS for Healthcare Providers Course covers core material such as adult CPR and pediatric CPR (including two-rescue scenarios and use of the bag mask) foreign-body airway obstruction and AED (automatic external defibrillation) instruction.
