On-Site BLS Training

On-Site BLS Training for Hospitals, Clinics and Companies

For a department or a whole facility, the most efficient way to get everyone through a BLS course is to bring the course to you. We run on-site AHA BLS training anywhere in the UAE.

How it works

You provide a room and a list of staff; we bring AHA instructors, adult and infant manikins, AED trainers and bag-mask devices; everyone is trained, tested and issued an AHA BLS eCard.

Why on site

  • No travel time — staff train between shifts.
  • Sessions scheduled around your roster.
  • Everyone certified to the same standard at the same time.
  • Usually the lowest cost per person — see BLS fees.

Who we train on site

Hospitals, clinics, dental practices, pharmacies, home-care providers, schools with nurses, and companies with medical rooms. Roles include nurses, doctors and dentists, allied health staff and caregivers.

Where

Anywhere in the UAE: Abu Dhabi, Al Ain, Dubai and Sharjah and the Northern Emirates.

Records and renewals

Each participant receives an AHA BLS eCard. We can provide a list of names and expiry dates and plan the next round so cards never lapse together — see BLS renewal. Larger organisations may also want to look at the RQI programme.

Getting a quote

Send us the number of staff, location and preferred dates through the contact page or the group booking form.

Planning an on-site day

Send us your headcount by role, since doctors, nurses and non-clinical staff may need different courses, and a list of possible dates. We propose a schedule of sessions, confirm the room requirements and arrive with enough manikins for everyone to practise without waiting. If some staff also need ACLS or a first aid course, we can run them in the same visit.
