Abstract :Objective: The study aims to evaluate the effectiveness of Basic Life Support training provided to health sciences students. Method: A single group pretest-posttest intervention type study was completed with 91 students. Data was collected with the Participant Information Form and Basic Life Support Information Form, which were developed by the researchers. Within the scope of the First Aid course, together with a video and training notes explaining the Basic Life Support procedure were shared with the students via the university course information system one week before the lesson. Afterward, the video and the training content were discussed with the students using the discussion and question-answer technique, and a demonstration was made of the model. The effectiveness of the Basic Life Support training was assessed directly and one month after the training. Results: The number of correct responses on the Basic Life Support Form was increased after training. There was a significant difference between the pre-test and post-test Basic Life Support knowledge scores of those who had not previously received Basic Life Support training insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(p<0.05);. Basic Life Support knowledge score averages were found to be lower in those who did not provide first aid before. Conclusion: Basic Life Support training was found to be effective for health sciences students. Since Basic Life Support is an applied intervention in which crisis management skills are used, creating the content of the training with interactive methods will increase the effectiveness of the training.
