• Efficiently recognize and manage cases of respiratory and cardiac arrest.
• Initiate early management of conditions such as symptomatic bradycardia.
• Employ advanced airway management techniques.
• Address ACS and stroke with prompt recognition and management strategies.
• Enhance team communication skills, both as a member and leader during resuscitation.
• Foster effective team dynamics in resuscitation efforts.

Course Highlights:

• Updates on the latest science in advanced cardiovascular life support from the AHA Guidelines for CPR & ECC.
