The Basic Life Support course represents entry-level training designed to educate persons in providing Basic Life Support techniques to adult victims with life threatening injuries, while activating the local medical services. The DAN Basic Life Support Provider ("DAN BLS Provider") program is designed to teach the knowledge and skills needed to provide Basic Life Support (BLS) to adult victims.
BLS consists of several First Aid techniques that support (or might restore) life. At the end of the course the DAN BLS provider will be able to recognize an emergency, activate the EMS and provide early BLS, while waiting for an AED or Advanced Life Support to arrive at the scene of the accident. Early access to the EMS and early BLS are 2 of the 4 links in the chain of survival.
