CHEERS TRAINING

[littlemissmuffet, BSN, RN]

Hi everyone!

I would just like to ask your insights regarding CHEERS training program for BLS per se.

Will it be worth it to undergo their BLS training? In that case, I would be spending fourfold

the usual amount for the training for 1 day only (half-day to be exact). It will really save my

time but I am thinking twice if it's really worth it, especially now that I am in need of

refurbishing my skills and knowledge (hello, stock knowledge!!!) that has long been idle.

Thank you for your future responses, RNs! :)

When we were in college we undergo CHEERS for their BLS and infection control I think. Yes they are fine same as others like what we attended in Vicente Sotto :)

I see. Thank you for your response. That kind of enlightened me, though I need more insights regarding their programs. If it is possible, please let me know any additional information you know about them. :)

we had trainings here but just to tell you just go get your BLS in other institution like red cross because their certificates for your BLS are not accepted in many institution plus their fees are way overpriced. two cents

Hi! Yes, I'm quite concern whether the training I would be getting from them will be credited by the hospitals here in Manila. I am not so sure, but I was told by a colleague that there are hospitals that accept AHA BLS while others mandate you to have the local BLS from Red Cross. I am not very knowledgeable of the different requirements every hospital implements.

If you don't mind, what are the institutions that do and don't recognize the certificate from these international training centers?

That will be of great help! Thank you so much... :)

IMHO, most tertiary hospitals. I don't think they are accredited AHA in my opinion. try to check the net. and also, lecturers are not that good they only read from the slides, IMHO.

how much is the bls at cheers?

[littlemissmuffet, BSN, RN]

Neversmile, if you don't mind, what are the other good training centers for BLS around Manila?

[littlemissmuffet, BSN, RN]

Hi Angel! Their BLS is almost quadruple the price of the regular BLS at Red Cross. I hope I deliver the message clearly.

suggest that you go to either your local RC or PHC. two cents
