5.0 out of 5 stars Best price for this manual, June 10, 2009

Leslie D (Richmond, VA) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: BLS for Healthcare Providers (Paperback)

Needed this manual to renew my BLS certification. The American Heart Association suggests 3 sources to purchase this item; all charged ridiculous shipping. Paying $7.95 shipping for an $11.00 book? FREE ship at Amazon with super saver shipping. SWEET!! Anyway, the manual is awesome, everything you need to know to get certified in Basic Life Support, and also excellent if you just want to learn how to provide CPR, use an automated external defibrillator, relieve a choking victim. The CD ROM is great for those who like the visual reinforcement of the text. BE AWARE-there are those out there selling the older manuals that do not reflect updates in practice. This is the most current version from 2006. I am guessing the committee will meet in the next couple of years to update if necessary.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not as advertised, November 29, 2011

hoover - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: BLS for Healthcare Providers (Paperback)

I ordered the 2010 edition of this title, as several new updates have occurred. The 2005 edition I received, without the updates was useless to me. After contacting the seller & Amazon, I received a full refund of my costs.

otg (Southern California) - See all my reviews

Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)

This review is from: BLS for Healthcare Providers (Student Manual) (Paperback)

This is the exact training booklet we used in class. It is well illustrated and well written. It comes with the quick reference guide also presented in class. The class and booklet come highly recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars well written book
It's a well written book. In the edition I got, it's a little outdated. Make sure you get the latest copy because AHA have changed recommendation of doing CPR.
