Highlights
Hands-only CPR is CPR without mouth-to-mouth breaths. It is recommended for use by people who see an adult suddenly collapse in the "out-of-hospital" setting. The objective of this initiative was to develop a message that describes an effective technique that the public will remember and perform to help an adult who suddenly collapses. The overarching objective, of course, is to save more lives by encouraging more bystanders to take immediate and appropriate action when they witness an adult suddenly collapse.
Hands-only CPR performed by a bystander has been shown to be just as effective as conventional CPR (CPR that includes breaths) in the first few minutes of an out-of-hospital sudden cardiac arrest. By joining our 4 hours course we hope it will increase the chance of a bystander taking action in a cardiac emergency.
What's the Difference Between BLS and CPR certification?
CPR is an emergency life-saving procedure performed on people with cardiac arrest. Whereas Basic Life Support (BLS) includes CPR but is an overall higher level of medical care typically administered by public safety professionals, first responders, paramedics, healthcare providers and qualified bystanders. CPR is taught in BLS certification classes, but since BLS certification is intended for healthcare professionals, the class is more in-depth than the traditional CPR training. Not everyone needs to get certified in BLS since most of the time CPR certification will be enough to provide lifesaving care in offices, schools and other safe environments.
Which Certification Should I Get?
This depends on your reason for getting a certification. If you want to feel more prepared in emergencies, traditional CPR certification is a great idea. If your job requires a certification, most of the time CPR certification will meet job requirements (better yet, check with them on the specific requirements!). If you're in healthcare field, a BLS certification is most appropriate.
