PALS Initial vs. PALS Renewal
Are you taking PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) for the first time? If not, you can take the PALS Renewal Course to save time and money
Is your BLS card still current
You MUST bring your current BLS card to class. If your cards are not current you MUST attend full BLS class before you take this course!
American Heart Association Mandatory Book Policy
Bring in your own current PALS book ( ISBN 13 : 978-1-61669-546-0), you can buy one from us for $50 or download the ebook HERE (ebook can not be printed out). Every American Heart Association course has the same guidelines across the USA.
Before your class
You need to study! Buy/borrow/download the book and learn the newest up to date guidelines.
What This Course Does Not Cover
The PALS Provider Course does not teach CPR, ECG rhythm identification, PALS pharmacology, or algorithms.
If you do not review CPR and if you do not learn and understand the ECG and pharmacology information, it is unlikely that you can successfully complete the PALS Provider Course.
You will not be taught how to read or interpret ECG rhythm strips in the course, nor will you be taught details about PALS pharmacology. You must know this in advance.
It is essential that you bring your PALS Course Guide to class; you will need it during each lesson in the course. You may refer to the Handbook of Emergency Cardiovascular Care for Healthcare Providers (optional), and you may bring it to the course to use as a reference during some of the stations in the course.
