BLS Algorithms - Updated 2020

The Basic Life Support Algorithms provide a detailed process for life saving actions for one and two rescuer situations for infants, children and adults. The BLS course can be taken by both healthcare and non-healthcare professionals, as you’ll see from the basic decision making involved in BLS. The BLS algorithms, when paired with the ProMed Certifications Basic Life Support course will give you the confidence to save a life in an emergency situation.
