Our Story

Dr. Disque while serving as a medical volunteer in Haiti following the devastating earthquake in 2010.

Save a Life Certifications by NHCPS was founded by Dr. Karl Disque, a board certified cardiac anesthesiologist. Based on the time demands required of health care professionals, he felt there was an unmet need for self-directed educational training. He and his colleagues found traditional on-site courses did not fit the constantly improving learning model now available through an online platform.

The resulting convenience of online training and the freedom to personally determine when completion occurs, gives health care professionals extra time to continue saving the lives of the patients they are surrounded by on a daily basis. For this reason, all aspects of the course can be accessed online, and completed from any device with Internet access.

All of our courses are designed by Board Certified Physicians and adhere to the latest ILCOR Standards and Guidelines and are Joint Commission (JCAHO) compliant. Our courses include many forms of study material, including video demonstrations, audiobooks, and PDF study handbooks. Examinations are created from content covered in the training material. Our ACLS, BLS, and PALS courses are eligible for AMA Category 1 Credits™ and our CPR course is eligible for AMA category 2 CME. The Postgraduate Institute of Medicine (PIM), an accredited, online medical certification regulatory organization, has completed a full evaluation of Save a Life Certifications by NHCPS’ Courses. Our ACLS, PALS and BLS Certification and Recertification training courses have been fully approved and are accredited by PIM for AMA Category 1 Credits™.
