You too, can be one of those people who confidently springs into action when there is a person in need: Save a Life and the National Health Care Provider Solutions (NHCPS) created a non-profit organization to certify people around the world with five different life-saving certifications and re-certifications, which, for an undisclosed amount of time, are being offered for free.
What is Save a Life by NHCPS?
Who is NHCPS?
Save a Life by NHCPS is a non-profit that offers accredited online life-saving certifications from board certified physicians and health care professionals by providing training materials and exams. The online trainings are tailored to those who cannot attend an in-person class for whatever reason. They provide more flexibility and cover the same materials as an in-person class, following the International Liaison Committee on Resuscitation (ILCOR) standards. They are accredited by the Postgraduate Institute for Medicine (PIM) and are Joint Commission (JCAHO) compliant, and their certifications are nationally and internationally accepted by a rate of 98%, according to their FAQ.
Upon completing the training, you can request a printed card by mail.
How to take the certifications free?
