COURSE DESCRIPTION
The American Heart Association ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support) Initial Course is designed for healthcare professionals who respond to cardiovascular emergencies in hospitals, clinics, and emergency settings. It goes beyond basic CPR and focuses on advanced, team-based care for adults experiencing life-threatening cardiac events.
In a brand new ACLS course, students learn how to recognize and manage emergencies such as:
- Cardiac arrest
- Stroke
- Heart attacks (acute coronary syndromes)
- Respiratory arrest and airway emergencies
- Dangerous heart rhythms and arrhythmias
The course combines hands-on practice, realistic scenarios, and critical thinking to help providers respond quickly and confidently during high-stress situations.
Students are trained in:
- High-quality CPR and effective team dynamics
- Advanced airway management
- Use of medications during cardiac emergencies
- ECG rhythm recognition and interpretation
- Defibrillation and synchronized cardioversion
- Post-cardiac arrest care
- Communication and leadership during resuscitation events
The Initial ACLS course is intended for first-time students or providers whose certification has expired and requires a full course instead of a renewal.
Upon successful completion, participants receive an official American Heart Association ACLS Provider eCard, typically valid for two years.
