American Heart Association® Certification Courses Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS)

Healthcare Provider Basic Life Support (BLS)

Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS)

The goal of this course is to improve the quality of care provided to the adult victim of a cardiac arrest or other cardiopulmonary emergency.

Students will practice skills application in simulated cases, and will also practice both team leader and team member roles.

This course covers basic life support skills such as the AHA Chain of Survival; one and two man CPR for the adult, child, and infant; response to choking (both conscious and unconscious) in the adult, child, and infant; airway management techniques; and AED use.

This course uses simulated pediatric emergencies to reinforce the important concepts of a systemic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support (BLS), PALS treatment algorithms, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics.
