BLS Flashcards
The number of jobs in the healthcare and nursing fields is expected to grow at a faster rate than average to the year 2024. The employment outlook for paramedics and EMTs is also just as positive. There are a number of jobs where a knowledge of BLS (Basic Life Support), also known as Pro Level CPR, is required, such as for First Responders.
In order to prepare for these exciting careers, it’s important to study all course materials thoroughly to ensure that the material is completely understood. Nurses, EMTs, paramedics, and physician assistants must pass a certification exam before they will be allowed to work.
If you are looking for a resource to help you prepare for exams you will be taking as part of formal studies or certification exams, Varsity Tutors’ Learning Tools can help. The medical and nursing flashcards can be used for study help whenever you need it.
Learning Tools are a free online resource that you can access from a mobile device when you download the app from either the App Store or Google Play. This will give you the flexibility to use them from anywhere you can get online. If you prefer to visit the website from a computer, you simply need to go to the Varsity Tutors’ Learning Tools website and visit the Medical and Nursing Flashcards page.
Once you visit the page or check out the app, you will see a list of Medical and Nursing Flashcards categories. This feature makes it easy for you to focus on the type of program you are involved in. All you need to do is make your selection and click on the flashcards corresponding to it.
You will immediately be taken to free flashcards online. Study as many of the flashcards as you like, or create an account and make your own. The website and app makes it easy for you to review this material on your own schedule. You can use your phone or tablet to go over some questions when you have a few minutes to spare, or you can sit down for a longer study session to test your knowledge.
When you click on a flashcard, you get a multiple-choice question. After reading the question carefully (there is never any time limit imposed on you for using the flashcards), choose your answer. You will find out immediately whether your answer was the right one or not. If you chose incorrectly, the right answer will be provided. The flashcard also provides an explanation for the correct answer in each instance, so that you can confirm your understanding or add some details that you needed to understand.
Once you have finished with a flashcard, you can decide to continue to the next one, or go back to see the previous question if you would like to review it again. This method of studying for medical and nursing subjects gives you plenty of flexibility, which is another reason you will want to include it in your list of study strategies when doing your exam prep work.
Basic Life Support, or BLS, is the American Heart Association’s certification training program for healthcare professionals. It covers techniques for resuscitating, reviving, and sustaining a patient who is in respiratory failure or cardiac arrest. The techniques can be used to assist someone who has had a heart attack or stroke, a drowning victim, or someone who has been involved in a serious accident. If you need or want to be BLS certified, you should be aware that your certification must be renewed every two years. You are required to be re-certified in order to ensure that your skills are always current, so it pays to do some BLS review.
Since BLS covers more than simply when to perform CPR and the process involved in this procedure, you’ll want to make sure that you have up-to-date information on a variety of procedures, including how to provide help to someone who is choking and the best recovery position after the person is stabilized. Varsity Tutors’ Learning Tools website makes it easy for you to find the BLS review resources you need to brush up on material you need to know to pass your certification exam. By using the BLS Flashcards as a study tool, you can study one question when you have a few minutes or select a longer set when you have the time to go over more material. This Learning Tool takes into account the modern learner’s busy schedule.
The Basic Life Support Flashcards are available online, which means that you have the flexibility to access the flashcards from anywhere you have an internet connection. Plus, you aren’t limited to waiting until you get home or to the office to access BLS study help; simply download Varsity Tutors’ Learning Tools app to your mobile phone or tablet and you can take your studies with you wherever you go. It’s easy and convenient, and you don’t have to miss a step as you prepare for your exam.
To use the flashcards, simply click to start the set. You will see a multiple-choice BLS practice question. Read the question and select the best answer from the ones provided. Once you have made your choice, you can find out whether your answer was correct or not, as well as the correct answer and the concepts involved in obtaining the correct answer. A detailed explanation is provided. This is an important feature of the BLS Flashcards, as you not only need to know that the answer is correct, but why the answer is correct.
When using the BLS Flashcards, you are free to take all the time you need. There is never a time limit with this or any other Learning Tool, including the BLS Practice Tests, Learn by Concept, or Question of the Day. You can take as much time as you need to answer questions or review the detailed explanations. You’ll want to do a thorough BLS review, since someday, someone’s life may depend on it. Give yourself the opportunity to do well on the BLS certification exam by including Varsity Tutors’ Learning Tools Flashcards as part of your Basic Life Support test preparation. This valuable resource provides the materials you need to comprehensively review all of the important BLS topics you need to know.
