BLS vs. BCLS Certification?


Question:
I have a BLS certification for Health Care Providers. But what is the difference between BLS and BCLS? Is there a difference or are they the same thing? I've been searching but can't seem to find an answer. Thanks!

Answers:
As far as I know they are the same. I think the C stands for cardiac but that's what BLS is also.
I think BCLS was an older acronym.
You might check the American Heart Association as they are one of the groups that offically certifies BLS.
You sure you don't mean ACLS, Advanced cardiac life support??
