Is this the card Chaffey College nursing students need?
It is the American Heart Association BLS Provider card for healthcare providers, the kind of card Chaffey's nursing program documents describe. The Vocational Nursing program asks for it to be renewed every year, even though the card is valid for 2 years. We are not affiliated with Chaffey College, so your program packet has the final word.

Most students finish in under 2 hours. Your AHA BLS Provider eCard is issued the same day you pass the skills test and exam, and it is valid for 2 years.
