Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Update Course is organized by Children's Mercy Kansas City and will be held on Dec 19, 2024 at Children's Mercy Hospital, AHA Training Center, Kansas City, Missouri, United States of America.

Description:
The PALS Update course is for participants that have a CURRENT PALS and BLS certification from the American Heart Association.  PALS Certification cannot be expired.  A current BLS for Healthcare Providers certification is also required for this course from the American Heart Association.

Both BLS and PALS current certification cards must be verified by the CMH AHA Training Center prior to class.

The Pediatric Advanced Life Support Program (PALS) was created in cooperation with the American Heart Association and the American Academy of Pediatrics, to assist the health care provider participant to recognize early signs of pediatric and infant distress and intervene to prevent respiratory and cardiopulmonary arrest.  In addition, the course is designed to enhance cognitive and psychomotor skills needed to resuscitate and stabilize critically ill infants and children.

The PALS course includes various types of learning formats which include videos, skill stations, interactive sessions and self-study.  The skill stations and interactive scenario teaching stations utilize small group, personalized learning settings.
