Where is the closest BLS instructor course to El Monte?

Ours, at 100 N. Barranca St in West Covina. From El Monte it is about 10.3 miles east on the I-10, roughly 12 minutes outside rush hour, and the course runs every Saturday from 12:00 to 4:00 PM.

Could El Monte-Rosemead Adult School grads become instructors?

Anyone holding a current AHA BLS Provider card can start the instructor path, and that includes EMT, phlebotomy and nurse assistant graduates. Teaching BLS to the next cohort is a natural next step once you have worked with the material yourself.

Is there demand for CPR instructors in El Monte?

Greater El Monte Community Hospital runs a 24-hour emergency department plus critical and subacute care, and the county's El Monte Comprehensive Health Center adds urgent care, dental and pharmacy staff. Every one of those roles carries a BLS card that has to be renewed every two years.

Can an El Monte clinic certify its own staff in house?

Yes, by training a few of its people as instructors. Gather five or more candidates with current BLS Provider cards and we run the instructor course at your clinic. Once aligned under our Training Center, they can run BLS for your team on your schedule.

What happens after the Saturday course?

You teach one BLS class while an instructor trainer observes. Pass it and your AHA instructor card is issued through our Training Center, and from then on you can schedule and teach your own classes.

Does the Launch package help me teach in El Monte?

Launch adds a branded website, an online booking calendar, starter equipment, LLC setup help and a year of monthly mentorship, which is everything you need to start running classes for El Monte students under your own name.
