Basic Life Support (BLS) Classes
Basic Life Support (BLS) for dental professionals is a required certification for dentists, oral surgeons, hygienists, and other clinical team members who may administer sedation or general anesthesia.
This American Heart Association Authorized Training covers high-quality CPR for adults, children, and infants, the use of automated external defibrillators (AEDs), and effective response to airway obstruction.
BLS training is recognized by dental boards and licensing authorities as a core requirement for anesthesia permit compliance, and ensures your practice is prepared for medical emergencies that may occur during treatment.
Heartsaver CPR, AED & First Aid Classes
Heartsaver CPR, AED & First Aid training is ideal for non-clinical staff working in dental offices — such as front desk coordinators, insurance managers, and administrative personnel — who want to be prepared for basic medical emergencies.
These courses provide American Heart Association Authorized certification and include hands-on or blended learning options to teach CPR techniques, AED operation, and how to respond to common injuries or incidents in the workplace. Heartsaver classes support your office’s emergency readiness and help foster a culture of safety and teamwork in dental environments.
