HeartCode PALS Skills Evaluation

HeartCode PALS Instructor-led skills evaluation ** Please contact Kelly Riedel to schedule - kelly.s.riedel@ssmhealth.com **

Description

The PALS Course is intended for healthcare providers who respond to emergencies in infants and children, including personnel in emergency response, emergency medicine, intensive care, and critical care units, such as physicians, nurses, paramedics, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, and others who need a PALS course completion card for their job or other requirements. HeartCode PALS is for healthcare professionals and others seeking an alternative delivery method for completing PALS training. This online course is a convenient alternative to classroom-based PALS training. This course may be used for an initial or renewal course completion card.

Upon successful completion of the online portion, including the course exam, students receive a certificate of completion, which they must print and present for entry into the instructor-led hands-on session.   

Students then register for & attend their pre-scheduled classroom teaching session which includes hands-on practice and skills testing.  The structured classroom portion takes about 4 hours and requires on-time attendance for the full course.  The cost for the in-person portion is separate from the cost of the AHA PALS HeartCode online portion. 

Upon successful completion of the online and in-person testing, a PALS Provider course eCard valid for 2 years will be issued.  

PACTS/PALS - AHA HeartCode PALS
