Just a little inquiry from people who have taken the Basic Trauma Life Support Course through BTLS Ontario,
How did you like it, were the instructors good, would you have changed anything??? I just spent the weekend taking the course. And felt a couple things could have been improved, Certainly more hands-on instruction could have been given, and finally the course could have certainly been set to flow from Chapter to Chapter more Fluidly, All things considered it wasn't all bad...
What are your thoughts on the course...
Is it all just for another hilight in your resumes???

It all depends who you take the BTLS course with. I've taken all of them with Toronto EMS and they've been wonderful. Very good hands on.......with a lot of theory. When I did the BTLS Basic, it wasn't over a weekend. I did four (4) consecutive Wednesday nights.......which I found to be wonderful. Doing it over and over and over again tends to imprint it in your brain better than a quick weekend course.
