Program Overview
The ASHI Basic Life Support (BLS) program is intended to assist healthcare providers, including professional rescuers, in learning or refining BLS skills for patients of all ages. These critical, potentially life-saving skills include pedorming high-quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) and automated external defibrillation (AED) as a single provider and part of a team. BLS also includes knowing how to relieve foreign body airway obstruction.
Founded in basic principles of instructional design and learning theory ASHI promotes a toolbox approach to learning. This approach gives instructors flexibility in both presentation strategies and materials in order to reach students with widely varying abilities in the countless instructional settings that exist in the real world. Basic Life Support is designed to include a significant amount of hands-on skill practice.
