Basic Life Support (BLS)

Basic Life Support (BLS) training is essential for anyone who wants to be prepared to act confidently and effectively in a life-threatening emergency. This course is especially important for healthcare professionals such as GPs, practice nurses, and surgery staff, many of whom are required to complete annual BLS refresher training to stay compliant with CQC and Resuscitation Council UK guidelines.

It’s also highly valuable for sports coaches, personal trainers, and community volunteers—anyone who may be responsible for the wellbeing of others in high-risk or active environments. BLS training equips you with critical, hands-on skills including CPR, safe use of an AED, and how to manage an unconscious casualty—ensuring you’re ready to respond when every second counts.

I have attended many first aid courses during my career - 3 day and 1 day. Without doubt Jo's course was the best in terms of really getting the message across of what to do in the event of heart attack, cardiac arrest or accident. Her friendly but efficient delivery was first class and I feel much more confident now that, if I am faced with any of the above, I would be able to put into practice what I learnt. Thank you Jo!
