“Model Core Curriculum for Pharmacy Education—2015 version—” requires student pharmacists to describe basic life support procedures (cardiopulmonary resuscitation, trauma life support, etc. (BLS)) and to be able to perform it using a simulator. The PUSH course has attracted attention in recent years as a hands-on BLS training with little difficulty in a short time, and is therefore considered appropriate for use with introductory pharmacy education. In this review, we will introduce the practical examples of PUSH course for pharmacy students and change in their attitudes before and after the course as well as some cases of BLS involving community pharmacy, with understanding of the essential basic knowledge and skills in sudden cardiac death and BLS, and also discuss what is the role pharmacists would play in the future.
