Aims And Objectives
The American Heart Association’s PALS instructor-led classroom course enhances healthcare providers’ skills in the treatment of pediatric arrest and peri-arrest patients.

The course uses a series of simulated pediatric emergencies to teach and reinforce the important concepts of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, basic life support, PALS treatment algorithms, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics.
