Description

PLEASE THERE IS ACLS PART 2 which is done in the office in order to complete your ACLS  class. PLEASE YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE  PART 2 SKILL SECTIONS ON OUR WEBSITE WHICH IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PART 1 THAT YOU HAVE PAID.

HeartCode ACLS is the AHA’s blended learning delivery method for the AHA’s ACLS Course. HeartCode blended learning delivers quality resuscitation education regardless of where providers are located and gives them more control to complete the course at their own pace. 

Providers first complete the online portion of HeartCode ACLS and then complete a hands-on skills session with an AHA ACLS Instructor or HeartCode compatible manikin.

Access to the ACLS Provider Manual eBook (20-3100) is included with HeartCode ACLS. You will be able to access the Provider Manual from within the course.

This product has been updated with new science from the 2020 Guidelines for CPR and ECC and replaces the previous version (15-1407).

How does the 2020 Guidelines version of HeartCode differ from the 2015 Guidelines version of HeartCode?

The 2020 Guidelines HeartCode uses a personalized adaptive algorithm that sets students on the most efficient path to mastery. Students follow a continuously adapting learning path that is personalized by their own inputs: their performance, and their self- reported confidence level related to each probing question. The course content is presented in the form of self-directed learning content, probing questions, and Cognitive Assessment Activities (CAAs).

PLEASE THERE IS BLS PART 2 which is done in the office in order to complete your  BLS class. PLEASE YOU ARE REQUIRED TO PAY FOR THE  PART 2 SKILL SECTIONS ON OUR WEBSITE WHICH IS DIFFERENT FROM THE PART 1 THAT YOU HAVE PAID.

HeartCode BLS uses a personalized adaptive algorithm that sets students on the most efficient path to BLS mastery. Students follow a continuously adapting learning path that is personalized by their own inputs: their performance and their self- reported confidence level related to each probe. The course content is presented in the form of self-directed learning content, probes, and Cognitive Assessment Activities.

The student has a choice of completing a pre-hospital or in-hospital contextualized track. After completing the online portion, students will attend a structured, Instructor-led hands-on session that focuses on meaningful skills practice, team scenarios, and skills testing. Where available, students may also complete the hands-on session with a HeartCode compatible manikin.

HeartCode BLS is the AHA’s BLS blended learning delivery method. Blended learning is a combination of eLearning, in which a student completes part of the course in a self-directed manner, followed by a hands-on skills session.

At Heart Alive Medical Training LLC, your safety and community health are our utmost priorities. We adhere to OSHA Standards for N95 Respirator Fit Testing, ensuring that you are well-equipped to protect yourself and others in any situation. We invite you to participate in this essential process, where your comfort and security are at the forefront of our efforts.

As part of the Qualitative Fit Test QLFT, we will guide you through a pass-fail assessment that relies on your sensory responses. To ensure accurate results, please refrain from eating, drinking, or chewing gum for 15 minutes before your exam. When you arrive, you will be asked to perform a series of simple tasks, including normal and deep breathing, moving your head side to side and up and down, bending over or jogging in place, and talking or reading. This comprehensive testing will help ensure that your N95 respirator fits properly and functions effectively.

We are pleased to offer fit testing for individuals, groups, and organizations. If you are ready to take this important step towards preparedness, we encourage you to contact Heart Alive Medical to schedule your appointment. Our team is here to provide you with accessible and personalized service, empowering you with the knowledge and skills needed for any emergency.

Please be informed that FIT testing is an annual activity. So you are required to return to the office a year after you have been FIT tested.
