In the healthcare setting, the possibility of a cardiac arrest incident is very real. “Code Blue” emergencies demand the highest level of proficiency from healthcare professionals. The Basic Cardiac Life Support and Automated External Defibrillator Course (BCLS + AED) was designed to achieve this by incorporating the practice standards used in healthcare institutions. The course focuses on the application of high quality CPR and emphasis on the time-sensitivity and team dynamics to drive the desired performance in resuscitation.
