American Heart Association Health Care Provider BLS CPR Online Blended Course

This is the course required for physical therapy, nursing, exercise science, respiratory therapy and many other health programs at Bellarmine University.

This is a two-step, blended course; you must first complete the online course then you will complete an interactive video and live clinical skills check-off.

Step one: Purchase your link

An online link will be sent to your email address from the American Heart Association. You can purchase your link directly from the American Heart Association at www.onlineaha.org. Type in Heartcode BLS into the search engine to locate the course.

You will be continuously tested throughout the course to reinforce understanding of course concepts.

Step two: Skills check-off in the Office of Health Services, Newman 121

After the course, you must schedule a live clinical skills check off.

You MUST make an appointment for your check-off by contacting Alice Kimble via email at mkimble@bellarmine.edu. The skills check-off is $20.

Keep in mind:

There is no pressure at the skills checks-off; staff will show you what clinical skills you have forgotten and ensure you are proficient before you leave.
All cards are sent electronically to the emails address of your choice. If you lose your electronic card, call our office to have it re-sent.

You MUST:

Make an appointment with Alice Kimble via email at mkimble@bellarmine.edu to schedule your skills check-off.
