BLS vs. CPR – What Is the Difference?

Many people ask how BLS differs from standard CPR training. In short, BLS goes further: it covers team-based resuscitation, advanced airway management, and AED use together. Standard CPR focuses on the basics of compression and rescue breathing. That’s why a BLS certification is the preferred credential for healthcare providers and first responders.
