AS OF FEBRUARY 1, 2021 ALL AMERICAN HEART COURSES WILL BE TAUGHT USING 2020 GUIDELINES.
This renewal course is designed to teach the knowledge and skills required to implement the American Heart Association’s ACLS treatment guidelines in the learner’s practice setting and improve the outcomes for adult patients with cardiac arrest and other cardiopulmonary emergencies. A current ACLS provider manual is required to attend. If you do not own the updated version, you must purchase prior to class. The current ACLS Manual is available at our Mesa office to pick up prior to class.
