PALS Plus: Blended course (heart pals plus & skills session)

Description

The PALS Plus Course is a pediatric advanced life support (PALS) course for more experienced pediatric healthcare providers seeking advanced educational content. The course teaches more than the traditional PALS curriculum and includes 9 additional modules related to pediatric emergencies.

The full course includes an online portion consisting of HeartCode PALS Online and the student’s selection of at least 6 of the 9 PALS Plus Advanced Modules, combined with a HeartCode PALS skills session with an Instructor.

Upon successful completion of the hands-on skills session, PALS Plus students receive a PALS Provider eCard with the special designation of “PALS Plus” to indicate that they have completed the advanced modules as well as meeting all course completion requirements for a standard PALS Provider eCard.

This includes personnel in emergency response, emergency medicine, intensive care, and critical care units such as physicians, physician assistants, hospitalists, advanced practice/registered nurses, advanced level prehospital providers, and others who desire additional advanced educational content beyond the traditional PALS course.
