Practical Training for Real-World Emergencies

Our Basic Life Support (BLS) training is built specifically for healthcare professionals who need to stay sharp. We follow the latest American Heart Association guidelines, focusing on what matters most: spotting life-threatening emergencies quickly, delivering high-quality chest compressions, and handling ventilations properly. You will get hands-on experience with Automated External Defibrillators (AED), ensuring you are ready to act the moment someone needs help.

Carnegie Safety Institute CSI is the BEST place to get certifications for my needs at work! I have gotten my PALS with them twice and I will definitely look into using them for my other certifications in the future. They are very quick to respond and work with my already crazy schedule to accomplish the class. THANK YOU
