The AHA’s PALS Course has been updated to reflect new science in the 2020 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC. The goal of the PALS Provider Course is to improve outcomes for pediatric patients by preparing healthcare providers to effectively recognize and intervene in patients with respiratory emergencies, shock, and cardiopulmonary arrest by using high-performance team dynamics and high-quality individual skills. This course uses pre-course preparation, didactic instruction, and active participation in learning stations and simulated cases.
American Heart Association PALS Providers Course Completion Card is valid for two years.
The New 2020 PALS program has changed. The majority of the course is done online on the AHA website.
