Northwest Arctic Region EMS Presents: 

Healthcare Provider BLS: Blended Learning Heart Code Skills Check


Healthcare Professionals

This course is designed for healthcare providers and support staff in healthcare facilities! 

CPR competency is critical to victim survival. Skills testing ensures competency and proper execution. 

HeartCode BLS is the AHA's BLS blended learning delivery method. Blended learning is a combination of online learning, in which a student completes part of the course in a self-directed manner, followed by a hands-on skills session. After practice, students must demonstrate competency without any assistance, hints or prompting. Course duration for skills checks vary greatly in time but you should anticipate a minimum of 45 minutes to an hour for completion. We are committed to spending as much time as needed with the hands on portion of this class to ensure perfect execution during your skills demonstration. 

 Prior to taking this course the following must be met:

  • Purchase the on-line HeartCode BLS course through the following site: HeartCode® BLS | AHA
  • Complete the on-line HeartCode BLS course.
  • Print your certificate of completion and bring it with you to the skills exam. 
  • Students who arrive to class without a copy of their completion certificate will need to reschedule.

Students must successfully pass these skills tests by being evaluated once in each role:

  • 1- and 2-Rescuer Adult BLS with AED
  • 1- and 2-Rescuer Infant BLS 

 Upon successful completion of the skills exam:

  • You will be emailed a link to claim your BLS Provider eCard 
    • Note: You do not have an acitve certification until you claim your eCard through the AHA. eCard links will be sent directly to the email you provided during online registration. Be absolutely sure the email is correct and accessible. All AHA certifications are stored and accessible through your AHA account after claiming your eCard. This includes BLS, PALS, ACLS and others and are accessible in PDF format.
    • eCards are issued by the AHA within 30 days of the class completion date. Maniilaq Regional EMS is happy to assist if you have questions or problems claiming your eCard in the first 90 days. If you fail to claim your eCard in that time period you may be required to re-take the course.
