The ability to save a human life is an invaluable skill that can be of immense consequence. Therefore, it must be fostered at every possible opportunity. While it is not possible for everyone to undergo the years of training needed to become a doctor or a nurse, a basic knowledge of life-saving procedures can help make a difference in an emergency situation.

Basic Life Support (BLS) refers to a set of procedures that can be learned to prolong survival in life-threatening situations until more professional help is available. Any individual can become certified in basic life support protocols. These protocols are frequently updated, based on the latest evidence available, and every individual who undergoes BLS certification may need to refresh their knowledge every two years.
