Basic Life Support (BLS) Provider Handbook (ePub)

This Basic Life Support (BLS) instructor manual teaches both single-rescuer and rescue teams basic life support skills for application in both pre-hospital and in-facility environments, with a focus on high-quality CPR. Our educational training material is created and maintained by practicing physicians, adhering to the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) guidelines. These BLS first-aid course techniques are based on the latest 2020-2025 ILCOR Standards and Guidelines, and are organized in systematic steps called the Chain of Survival. This BLS for health care providers lets you know about health care law and ethics.

This handbook will teach you the following keys to Basic Life Support:

• When and how to use an Automatic External Defibrillator (AED).
• How to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, and quickly start the Chain of Survival.
• How to deliver high-quality chest compressions to circulate oxygen to the brain and vital organs.
