Basic Life Support Referesher

Basic Life Support (BLS) involves immediate, life-saving first aid for cardiac arrest or breathing emergencies, focusing on keeping oxygen flowing to the brain and vital organs until professional help arrives.

We do this by performing CPR (Cardio-Pulmonary Resuscitation), clearing the airways, and using an AED (Automatic External Defibrillator).

It's a mandatory, foundational skill for healthcare providers and staff in all care settings.
