No. BLS (Basic Life Support) includes CPR but is not the same as a CPR-only certification. CPR focuses on chest compressions, rescue breaths, and AED use for lay rescuers, while BLS covers more advanced skills needed by healthcare providers, such as team-based resuscitation, pulse checks, and using barrier devices.
BLS is more detailed than a CPR-only course because it includes professional skills such as pulse checks, team dynamics, and responding in clinical environments. However, the course is designed to be manageable for all healthcare workers. With CPR Select, the exam is 25 questions with a 70% passing score and unlimited retakes, making it easier to complete successfully.
Yes. BLS for healthcare providers (HCP) focuses on skills and scenarios specific to healthcare settings, including adult, child, and infant resuscitation, airway management, team dynamics, and use of advanced equipment. It is different from general CPR courses aimed at the public, which cover basic life support and hands-only CPR.
BLS is not considered difficult. CPR Select’s BLS exam has 25 multiple-choice and true/false questions with a 70% passing score. Since you get unlimited exam retakes at no extra cost, most learners pass without issues.
BLS (Basic Life Support) focuses on core resuscitation skills for healthcare providers, including CPR for adults, children, and infants, airway management, and recognition of cardiac arrest. ILS (Intermediate Life Support) goes beyond BLS and includes more advanced interventions such as defibrillation, airway adjuncts, and team-based emergency response. Essentially, BLS teaches foundational life support, while ILS is designed for trained clinicians managing more complex emergencies.
Acceptance of this certificate varies by state, country, and employer. Always confirm with your regulator or workplace before enrolling.
