Class Schedule

WHO SHOULD TAKE THIS CLASS?

This Class is for healthcare professionals who either direct or participate in the management of cardiopulmonary arrest or other cardiovascular emergencies and for personnel in emergency response.

This class requires a working knowledge of EKGs and how to interpret them. This is not part of this class.

If you wish to take an EKG preparatory class, one is available online from AHA. AHA charges $20.00 for this course. This course is not provided as a part of ACLS and is not included in the price of this class.

If you choose to take this preparatory class, it can be found HERE.

What does this course teach?

Basic life support skills, including effective chest compressions, use of a bag-mask device, and use of an AED
Recognition and early management of respiratory and cardiac arrest
Recognition and early management of peri-arrest conditions such as symptomatic bradycardia
Airway management
Related pharmacology
Management of ACS and stroke
Effective communication as a member and leader of a resuscitation team

Advanced Cardiac Life Support Recertification/Renewal

********** THIS IS A RECERTIFICATION/RENEWAL CLASS ONLY **********

This recertification class is designed for experienced providers only. Information in class is covered very quickly and will require self-study before attending. When you register, study materials will be emailed to you with your registration confirmation. Review of these materials is essential for your success on the exam.

This class requires a working knowledge of EKG interpretation, medication doses, and the mechanism of action of those drugs. A study guide for EKG interpretation, as well as a video specifically for cardiac blocks, will be included in your registration email. EKG interpretation is NOT covered in this course.

Basic Life Support Inital

The AHA’s BLS course trains participants to promptly recognize several life-threatening emergencies, give high-quality chest compressions, deliver appropriate ventilations and provide early use of an AED.

Who should take this course?

The AHA’s BLS Course is designed for healthcare professionals and other personnel who need to know how to perform CPR and other basic cardiovascular life support skills in a wide variety of in-facility and prehospital settings.

What does this course teach?

High-quality CPR for adults, children, and infants
The AHA Chain of Survival, specifically the BLS components
Important early use of an AED
Effective ventilations using a barrier device
Importance of teams in multirescuer resuscitation and performance as an effective team member during multirescuer CPR
Relief of foreign-body airway obstruction (choking) for adults and infants

Pediatric Advanced Life Support Initial

Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS):

For healthcare providers who respond to emergencies in infants and children and for personnel in emergency response, emergency medicine, intensive care and critical care units

What does this course teach?

The PALS Provider Course aims to improve outcomes for pediatric patients by preparing healthcare providers to effectively recognize and intervene in patients with respiratory emergencies, shock, and cardiopulmonary arrest by using high‐performance team dynamics and high‐quality individual skills. The course includes a series of case scenario practices with simulations that reinforce important concepts. Upon successful completion of all the patient cases, students must pass the multiple-choice exam with a minimum score of 84%. Topics include:

After successfully completing this course, students will be able to

Perform high‐quality cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) per American Heart Association (AHA) basic life support (BLS) recommendations
Differentiate between patients who do and do not require immediate intervention
Recognize cardiopulmonary arrest early and begin CPR within 10 seconds
Apply team dynamics
Differentiate between respiratory distress and failure
Perform early interventions for respiratory distress and failure
Differentiate between compensated and decompensated (hypotensive) shock
Perform early interventions for the treatment of shock
Differentiate between unstable and stable patients with arrhythmias
Describe clinical characteristics of instability in patients with arrhythmias
Implement post–cardiac arrest management
