Renewal Basic Life Support (BLS) CPR
Vital CPR offers an efficient BLS Renewal course for healthcare professionals who hold a current, unexpired American Heart Association BLS certification. This refresher course reinforces the critical skills needed to respond to life-threatening emergencies — both individually and as part of a coordinated team.
The BLS Renewal class is shorter than the initial certification and focuses on high-quality CPR techniques, AED use, and rescue protocols for adults, children, and infants. You will practice essential skills for clinical and community healthcare settings, ensuring you remain confident and compliant in your role.
