Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Class
Course Overview
This 16-hour course is approved by and meets the behavioral objectives of the American Heart Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics. It provides the up-to-date and essential knowledge necessary for the assessment, treatment, and resuscitation of the pediatric patient. Didactic and hands-on learning methods will be offered for rhythm diagnosis and treatment, intraosseous cannulation, and airway maintenance, among other areas. You will actively participate in a series of simulated core cases, designed to reinforce important concepts.
Course Prerequisites and Preparation
Since the PALS Provider course does not teach algorithms, ECG recognition, pharmacology or CPR, you must identify and remedy any gaps in your knowledge of these topics prior to the class. The following knowledge and skills are required for successful course completion:
- BLS skills
- ECG rhythm identification
- Basic pharmacology
- Practical application of knowledge to clinical scenarios
- Resuscitation team concepts
The course fee is $220 for 16 Contact Hours and includes the PALS Workbook and the PALS Provider manual from our library. Register online
If you are well versed in PALS protocols, you have the option of attending the second day of any class for testing only. A current PALS Provider Card is required. The fee is $150 for 8 Contact Hours. Register online
* If you are not practicing PALS as a regular part of your professional role in your healthcare facility it is recommended that you take the entire course.

BLS for Healthcare Providers is no longer a prerequisite for entry into the PALS program; the AHA requires “BLS SKILLS”. However, if your BLS card has expired or is about to expire and you wish to renew, we still offer BLS certification within the PALS course for a discounted price of $25.
