PURPOSE:
Heartcode PALS Online training is the most high tech, official American Heart Association (AHA) Self-Directed Comprehensive eLearning Program. It allows students to take the PALS course on a computer, instead of attending a traditional, classroom setting. By using simulation technology and scenario-based learning, studies have shown this to be very effective. However, it MUST be completed with a hands-on skills session.
COURSE CONTENT:
- High-quality Child CPR AED and Infant CPR
- Recognition of patients who do and do not require immediate intervention
- Recognition of cardiopulmonary arrest early and application of CPR within 10 seconds
- Apply team dynamics
- Differentiation between respiratory distress and failure
- Early interventions for respiratory distress and failure
- Differentiation between compensated and decompensated (hypotensive) shock
