HeartCodeTM BLS Part 1 - AHA Instructor Network

HeartCode BLS Part 1
TM
An Official American Heart Association BLS eLearning Program
Research indicates that the quality of CPR has a direct effect
on patient outcomes from cardiac arrest and that many
caregivers may not perform CPR according to the guidelines
established by the American Heart Association (AHA).
HeartCode™ BLS is a self-directed, comprehensive eLearning
program from the American Heart Association, designed to
address these important issues.
The full course combines an interactive, cognitive portion
completed online, with CPR skills training. The student can then
practice and test their skills on a Voice Assisted Manikin
(VAM) system or with an AHA BLS Instructor. HeartCode™
BLS will provide your team with the benefits of improved
competency in CPR and may save time and money compared
to classroom-based courses.
