Basic Cardiac Life Support

The Basic Cardiac Life Support (BCLS) theory module is an online learning component designed to provide nursing students with essential knowledge of life-saving interventions in cardiac emergencies. This module covers fundamental concepts such as:

• Chain of survival
• Recognition of cardiac arrest
• Basic Life Support (BLS) algorithms
• High-quality CPR techniques
• Airway management, and
• Use of an Automated External Defibrillator (AED)

Students will engage in interactive e-learning modules, video demonstrations, and case-based discussions to understand the principles of effective resuscitation. The theoretical knowledge gained in this module will prepare students for hands-on practical training at the college, ensuring they develop the skills and confidence needed to respond effectively to cardiac emergencies in real-world healthcare settings.
