Advanced Cardiac Life Support Course Description

Advanced Care Training, LLC

The American Heart Association Advanced

Cardiovascular Life Support course is totally redesigned to

incorporate new science evidence from the 2005

Guidelines and a new teaching methodology. Through

the ACLS course, 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.
