Prehospital Trauma Life Support for First Responders (PHTLS-FR), from the National Association of Emergency Medical Technicians (NAEMT), trains emergency medical responders, firefighters, rescue personnel, and law enforcement officers to provide effective trauma treatment before EMS professionals arrive on the scene.

Topics covered include:

• Shorter, didactic lessons to increase time spent on skills
  and patient simulations

• Lessons, skills, and patient simulations that follow the
  XABCDE method for primary survey

• New lesson on Exsanguinating Hemorrhage

• New lesson on Expose/Environment

• New case studies to engage first responders

Prehospital Trauma Life Support promotes critical thinking as the foundation for providing quality care. It is based on the belief that, given a good fund of knowledge and key principles, EMS practitioners are capable of making reasoned decisions regarding patient care.

Topics covered include:

ACLS
Advanced Cardiac Life Support

The AHA’s ACLS course builds on the foundation of lifesaving BLS skills, emphasizing the importance of preventing cardiac arrest, early and continuous high-quality CPR, and high-performing teams.

The course reflects science and education from the 2020 American Heart Association Guidelines for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC).

• Apply the BLS, Primary, and Secondary Assessments sequence for a systematic evaluation of adult patients

• Discuss how the use of a rapid response team (RRT) or medical emergency team (MET) may improve patient outcomes

• Discuss how the use of a rapid response team (RRT) or medical emergency team (MET) may improve patient outcomes

• Recognize bradycardias and tachycardias that may result in cardiac arrest or complicate resuscitation outcome

• Perform early management of bradycardias and tachycardias that may result in cardiac arrest or complicate resuscitation outcome

AHA-BLS
Basic Life Support

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. Reflects science and education from the American Heart Association Guidelines Update for CPR and Emergency Cardiovascular Care (ECC).

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.

• 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

  
  

BLS tuition $65 before the first day of the course.
