Throughout your ALS course, you'll learn to assess, recognize and provide high-quality care to adult patients experiencing life-threatening medical emergencies, including shock, cardiac and respiratory events, as well as how to provide care after the return of spontaneous circulation (ROSC) during a resuscitation effort. In addition, our course will challenge your critical-thinking and problem-solving skills and help improve your teamwork skills to provide better patient care. Blended Learning and Streamlined Options for Experienced Providers ALS classes are easy to integrate into your life with our innovative Blended Learning program. By combining online coursework with an in-person skills session, they allow you to learn at your own pace – and in the place, and on the device, you like best. Throughout the course, our interactive scenarios will help you understand the often-nuanced facets of pediatric care and will help improve your clinical decision-making skills. After completing the online portion of course, and passing the final written exam, you'll attend an in-person skills session where you'll demonstrate your ALS skills to a certified Red Cross instructor. Once you've passed both sections of the course, you'll receive a two-year Advanced Life Support certification.
