Wood County Hospital - CPR & Advanced Life Support

HeartCode ACLS has two main components- an on-line portion, and an in-person ands-on skills session.

The on-line course can be completed as the student is able. The content is presented in the form of self-directed learning content, probes, and Cognitive Assessment Activities. This ACLS course teaches the importance of preventing cardiac arrest, high-performance teams, early and continuous high-quality CPR, systems of care, recognition and intervention of cardiopulmonary arrest, post-cardiac arrest care, acute dysrhythmias, stroke, and acute coronary syndromes (ACS).

Please sign up for this class no later than 2 weeks prior. It may take up to 1 week to receive the link to the online portion you need to complete and then you must complete the on-line portion prior to attending the skills session. 

After completing the online portion, students will attend a structured, Instructor-led hands-on session that focuses on meaningful skills practice, debriefing, team dynamics training, megacode cases, discussions of local protocols and skills testing.

The skill session is the date this class is listed as- you must attend the entire skill session to receive your ACLS certification.
