This course is AHA Heart Code Basic Life Support Renewal Course. This course is for those that have previously taken an AHA BLS Course. Successful completion of the course is indicated by passing both the ONLINE Heart Code BLS Course and practical skills demonstration. CPR is a physically demanding skill. Dress accordingly in comfortable attire. LATE POLICY: Each session begins promptly at the scheduled time. The AHA requires that students are present for the entirety of the course in order to receive the course completion card.
