Our StatPacks Plus Advanced Life Support Course is based on ANZCOR Guidelines and best practice principles.
The course provides clinicians/workforce with the skills required that contribute to a successful outcome after a cardiac arrest. Clinicians will learn the importance of early rhythm recognition, CPR, defibrillation and post-resuscitation care in relaxed classroom atmosphere taught by experienced Advanced Life Support instructors.
The ALS one day course is designed to facilitate a personalised learning experience for the clinicians (Nurses, Midwives, Paramedics, and Medical Officers) who may be required to provide ALS.
The one day face to face workshop enables clinicians to practice and develop their clinical skills in a simulated environment under the guidance of highly experienced ALS instructors.
StatPacks Plus recommends that ALS be completed every two years and suggests that BLS be completed prior to undertaking the ALS course.
The Advanced Life Support one day course consists of the following:
- Online pre-course learning and assessments that must be completed before the course:
Advanced Life Support online theory modules and assessment — approx. 8 hours of study - Attendance at a one day workshop consisting of lectures, skill stations and practical based scenarios
