AVAILABLE CLASSES
PALS
Pediatric Advanced Life Support
Instructor-led course using a series of videos and simulated pediatric emergencies to reinforce the important concepts of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support, PALS treatment algorithms, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics. The goal of the PALS Course is to improve the quality of care provided to seriously ill or injured children, resulting in improved outcomes.
CPR/AED
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation / Automated External Defibrillator
Designed to give you the confidence to respond in an emergency situation with skills that can save a life. The AED Module explains the need, the use and theory behind AED’s. Class includes hands-on practice with a Zoll AED unit.
PHTLS
Prehospital Trauma Life Support
The mission of PHTLS is to promote excellence in trauma patient management by all providers involved in the delivery of prehospital care.
PHTLS 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:
Patient simulations
Physiology of life and death
Scene assessmentPatient assessment
Airway
Breathing, ventilation and oxygenation
Circulation, hemorrhage and shock
Patients with disabilities
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).
Topics covered include:
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
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
