Course Description

Advanced Cardiac Life Support is a course designed to cover identification and treatment of patients with medical conditions who are at risk for cardiac arrest. Primary and secondary assessment survey and actions needed, algorithms for treatment of emergency situations, and effective resuscitation team dynamics. This includes personnel in emergency response, emergency medicine, critical care/intensive care, such as Paramedics, Nurses, and Physicians.
