BTS


As the kiddos head back to school (BTS) this September to learn and perfect the ABC’s , the staff at Health Pro Education and Certification in Corona are steadily continuing to educate the community with Acls, Bls, and Cpr classes – the ABC’s. 

Advanced Cardiac Life Support

 This 10-12 hour course is an advanced, instructor-led classroom course that highlights the importance of team dynamics and communication, systems of care and immediate post-cardiac-arrest care. It also covers airway management and related pharmacology. In this course, skills are taught in group sessions with small, group learning and skills testing stations where case-based scenarios are presented.

Basic Life Support

 This course is designed to provide a wide variety of healthcare professionals the ability to recognize several life-threatening emergencies, provide CPR, use an AED, and relieve choking in a safe, timely and effective manner. This course is the required CPR/AED training for ANYONE in the healthcare field and covers adult, child and infant guidelines.

Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation

The purpose of CPR is to keep oxygenated blood flowing around the body to keep the vital organs alive. These skills are taught in the BLS course. The ABC’s within CPR:

Airway: Kneel by the casualty’s head and open their airway by tilting their head backwards

Breathing: Place your ear above their mouth and look at their chest. Check for normal breathing (regular breaths) for up to 10 seconds

Compressions: If the casualty is not breathing, you should call an ambulance and start chest compressions.

Health Pro Education and Certification of Corona encourages you to go BTS and sign up today to learn a life skill that can save lives.  The life you save with CPR is mostly likely to be someone you love.
