ACLS


So I just got my American Heart Association ACLS (Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support) Provider course materials in the mail.

"Through the ACLS course, 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. "

Looks like there's a lot of work involved before the class actually begins. Better get to it...

Will keep you updated once the course starts (June 29th/30th) :-)
