Choose the course by the requirement, not the acronym.
If an employer, school, regulator, or licensing body gave you an exact course name, use that as the starting point. If they did not, tell us who needs training and why. We can help narrow the options before you book.
Healthcare provider or clinical requirement
AHA BLS Provider is commonly required for healthcare personnel, first responders, and clinical students. Learners who already completed an eligible current AHA HeartCode BLS online portion may need only the corresponding hands-on skills session.
CPR and AED for work or general preparedness
AHA Heartsaver CPR AED is intended for workplace and community learners who need CPR and AED training but do not require provider-level BLS.
First aid, CPR, and AED together
AHA Heartsaver First Aid CPR AED brings those areas together in one recognized course when all three are needed.
First aid only
AHA Heartsaver First Aid makes sense when first aid is the actual requirement and CPR/AED is not.
Infant and child response
AHA Heartsaver Pediatric First Aid CPR AED is designed for people responsible for infants and children. Childcare, school, employer, and licensing requirements can differ, so send us the exact wording when one applies.
Severe bleeding
ACS STOP THE BLEED® is the official American College of Surgeons course. LV Severe Bleeding & Tourniquet Skills is separate Limen Vitalis supplemental training for clients who want additional repetition, customization, or scenario work.
Bloodborne pathogens
AHA Heartsaver Bloodborne Pathogens covers occupational exposure concepts. It is separate from CPR, AED, and first-aid training and may be only one part of an employer's broader exposure-control responsibilities.
