The ProCPR course is a BLS course designed for healthcare professionals. This course includes CPR, AED, and healthcare provider specific skills like bag valve mask and 2-rescuer CPR.
The curriculum for this course was based on the latest American Heart Association and ECC/ILCOR guidelines for CPR & BLS. The author of the course, Roy Shaw, is a licensed paramedic and professional CPR instructor. Roy will be your instructor if you choose to take the online course.
The ProCPR curriculum has been submitted to and approved by hundreds of state and national boards and third party accrediting organizations since 2005.
ProCPR is different from the typical CPR course you're probably accustomed to taking. We believe that high quality CPR training is something everyone should be able to access, for free. So, rather than paying simply to learn CPR, the payment is at the very end, only for those who need a certification card for work. We also believe that the problem with CPR isn't that everyone is doing CPR incorrectly. The bigger problem is that people aren't doing CPR at all. That's why we start with the "why." Why are people afraid to rescue? What happens when CPR doesn't work? These are just a few of the parts of the training that will make even the most seasoned healthcare professional walk away from the course learning something new or thinking about CPR differently.
ProCPR is available in three different formats:
Total course time includes 3 hours and 6 minutes of video training as well as knowledge reviews, final test, remedial help and reviewing downloaded material.
