When returning home from a business trip, Shelley Lynch MSN NP-BC APRN CCRN helped save a man’s life after watching him collapse at Logan Airport. This was the moment she and her husband Chad felt a call to provide more opportunities to train and educate the general public on CPR and AED use.

Capitalizing on Shelley’s 20+ years of experience in critical care and working as a college professor and Chad’s 15 years of business insight and United States Coast Guard taraining, ACLS Academy was born.

With a network of instructors teaching every course from CPR to Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS), husband and wife duo Chad and Shelley are on a mission to train both healthcare workers and non-healthcare individuals.
