The Town of Stratford is a designated HEARTSafe Community. One of the foundational purposes of HEARTSafe is to ensure healthcare providers are trained in CPR and AED use so that when a cardiac arrest occurs, the average lay person can help.
Stratford EMS Training & Education Center (SEMSTEC) will be hosting an American Heart Association (AHA) Pediatric Advanced Life Support (PALS) Initial course.
THIS IS A FULL INITIAL COURSE
The training will include both lecture and skills training and will cover advanced cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR), EKG, pharmacology and other advanced Pediatric life saving concepts. The PALS Provider Course aims to improve outcomes for pediatric patients by preparing healthcare providers to effectively recognize and intervene in patients with respiratory emergencies, shock, and cardiopulmonary arrest by using high‐performance team dynamics and high‐quality individual skills. The course includes a series of case scenario practices with simulations that reinforce important concepts.
