Advanced Cardiac Life Support/Basic Life Support (ACLS/BLS)
INITIAL 1 1/2 DAYS
The AHA’s ACLS Provider Course has been updated to reflect new science in the 2020 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC, as well as the 2019 Update to the 2018 ASA Ischemic Stroke Guidelines. ACLS teaches the importance of preventing cardiac arrest, high-performance teams, continuous high-quality CPR, systems of care, recognition and intervention of cardiopulmonary arrest, post-cardiac arrest care, acute dysrhythmias, stroke, and acute coronary syndromes (ACS).
The goal of the ACLS Provider Course is to improve outcomes for adult patients of cardiac arrest and other cardiopulmonary emergencies through early recognition and interventions by high-performance teams.
PRE COURSE ASSESSMENT AND WORK MUST BE COMPLETED PRIOR TO COURSE DATE:
This pre-course work allows more classroom time for hands-on skills training and leads to the student being better prepared to participate as soon as they enter the classroom. This will take you approximately 4 hours to complete
