Healthcare providers will enhance their skills in the treatment of the adult victim of a cardiac arrest or other cardiopulmonary
emergencies. ACLS emphasizes the importance of basic life support CPR to patient survival; the integration of effective basic life
support with advanced cardiovascular life support interventions; and the importance of effective team interaction and communication
during resuscitation.
Students engage in simulated clinical scenarios that encourage active, hands-on participation through learning stations where
students will practice essential skills individually, as part of a team, and as team leader.
Realistic simulations reinforce the following key concepts: proficiency in basic life support care; recognizing and initiating early
management of peri-arrest conditions; managing cardiac arrest; identifying and treating ischemic chest pain and acute coronary
syndromes; recognizing other life-threatening clinical situations (such as stroke) and providing initial care; ACLS algorithms; and
effective resuscitation team dynamics
For emergency, intensive care, or critical care healthcare providers such as physicians, nurses, paramedics, respiratory therapists,
and other professionals who may need to respond to a cardiovascular emergency.
