Hi, this is probably a stupid question, but my school requires a Healthcare Profesional CPR card before I can start EMT Fundamentals (first class I need to earn my EMT-B) but it doesn't specify if I need a BLS or ACLS.
Thanks for the help!

You need CPR for health care professionals.
Or BLS.

ACLS is a paramedic level class.

What?????? I thought emt class was 1 single class. Acls is advanced cardiac life support, something emt-b's have no direct dealing with usually. So I'd say bls.

OP, you want an AHA (American Heart Association) BLS for Healthcare Providers course/ card. That is all.

You can't even take ACLS without a BLS class first.
