Basic Life Support Training

Course Overview

Our Basic Life Support (BLS) course is delivered in line with the latest Resuscitation Council UK guidelines, so your team is trained — and assessed — against the current national standard for resuscitation, not an out-of-date syllabus.

BLS is an expected annual competency for clinical and care staff: GP surgeries, dental practices, care homes and NHS teams are routinely asked to evidence up-to-date BLS training at inspection. Our trainer comes to your premises and delivers a focused, hands-on three-hour session, with practical assessment on manikins and your own equipment where possible.

Certificates are valid for three years, although an annual refresher is strongly recommended — and is the norm in most healthcare settings. We can set up a recurring annual booking so your team's compliance never lapses.

What Your Team Will Learn

• Casualty assessment using the DRSABC approach
• Chest compressions and rescue breaths to current Resuscitation Council UK standards
• Safe and effective AED use, integrated with CPR
• The recovery position and airway management
• Managing choking in adults and children
• Infection control considerations during resuscitation
