PALS — Pediatric Advanced Life Support

This instructor-led, classroom-based PALS course trains physicians, nurses, and emergency medical care providers in pediatric advanced life support, based on the 2020 American Heart Association Guidelines for CPR and ECC. The course uses a series of simulated pediatric emergencies to reinforce the important concepts of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support, PALS treatment algorithms, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics. The goal is to improve the quality of care provided to seriously ill or injured children — and you'll run live pediatric case scenarios with an instructor and leave with your AHA PALS Provider eCard the same day.

Renewal requires a current, non-expired AHA PALS Provider card. A current BLS Provider card is recommended for both options.
