Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS)
Provider:
Education and Development offers ACLS Provider courses (2-day course) for those that have never had ACLS or have let their ACLS lapse.
Renewal:
For those needing ACLS Renewal, we no longer offer ACLS Renewal in the classroom, but we offer the flexibility of ACLS Renewal via the computer with the use of American Heart Association’s “Heartcode ACLS” program.
The program is a two-step process.
- Purchase and complete the “Heartcode ACLS” program via computer
- Complete a face-to-face skills demonstration, Megacode
CHC is proud to provide the skills demonstration check-off for $50.
