Multidisciplinary

The ALS course is designed for healthcare professionals who would be expected to apply the skills taught as part of their clinical duties, or to teach them on a regular basis. Appropriate participants include doctors, paramedics and nurses working in acute care areas (e.g. ED, CCU, ICU, HDU, operating theatres, acute medical admissions units) or on resuscitation /medical emergency/ICU outreach teams).

Immediate Life Support (ILS) courses are designed for health care professionals who may have to act as first responders and treat patients in cardiac arrest until the arrival of a cardiac arrest team.
