About This Course

Our Basic Life Support (BLS) course helps learners recognise life-threatening emergencies and take safe, prompt action.

First, our trainers explain the key steps involved in basic life support. Next, they demonstrate essential techniques and give learners opportunities to practise their skills.

As a result, learners can develop their confidence and respond more effectively while waiting for emergency services.

We can also tailor the training to suit different workplaces, including health and social care settings.
