PALS Training:Ā (Pediatric Advanced Life Support)

  • The Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Course is designed to teach providers the knowledge and skills needed to evaluate and care for the pediatric population during emergencies. PALS is an advanced, instructor-led classroom course that highlights the importance of team dynamics and communication, systems of care, airway management and immediate post-cardiac-arrest care. Because the PALS course covers extensive material in a short time, you do need to prepare for the course beforehand. The PALS course does not teach ECG rhythm recognition or pharmacology and completion of the AHA PALS pretest is mandatory.
  • Initial courses available for first time learners; Renewal courses available for students renewing their certification.
  • A two year AHA completion card is issued upon successful completion.
