PALS is an advanced, instructor-led classroom course that uses a series of 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. This course is designed for healthcare providers who respond to emergencies in infants and children including: EMS, emergency medicine, intensive care and critical care units such as physicians and nurses. Upon successful completion, students will receive a Provider Card valid for two years.
EMS providers can receive 2.75 CEUs for the online portion & 6.5 CEUs for the classroom portion.
The pre-course self-assessment and pre-course work can be found on the AHA elearning website: https://elearning.heart.org/course/426. You must bring a copy of the pre-course preparation certificate that states you have completed the video lessons and passed the pre-course self-assessment.
