Commonly held reservations regarding the ACLS course!

 The need for BLS and ACLS courses has been recognised by the healthcare industry worldwide. Almost every hospital emergency department now demands ACLS certification for medical personnel. When compared to other healthcare professionals, those who hold genuine ACLS certification get 97.2 percent industry recognition. As a result, it's understandable that the demand for ACLS courses would be stronger.


As a result of the increased demand, there is a surge in false information and phoney ACLS course providers. Huge discounts and certification in a short period of time are two frequent marketing strategies used to entice candidates. This leads to negative experiences for students who enrol in these bogus schools, which can have a negative impact on their careers. Overall, negative experiences with institutions can cause applicants to have doubts about their ability to achieve their goals.


1. Is it possible to take an ACLS course online?

Ans. Yes, both online and offline versions of the ACLS course are available.


Even though the course is completed online, AHA associated ACLS courses require a candidate to attend classes at the connected school for skill testing.


2. How can I know if the institution's ACLS course is up to date?

 Ans.a. Yes, both online and offline versions of the ACLS course are available.

b. If the candidates want to take an online course, make sure the ACLS course meets NBECC requirements (National Board of Emergency Care Certification).

c. Confirm that the ACLS Course providers deliver an ACLS Card.


3. Does the American Heart Association (AHA) recognise all ACLS courses?

Ans. The AHA accreditation does not take into account the reputation of the institutions that provide ACLS courses. AHA has a set of internationally recognised standards.


Because certain courses do not fulfil the pre-established standards stated by the AHA Council, not all ACLS courses are accepted by the AHA.


4. Is it true that ACLS certification takes only one hour?

Ans. Many course suppliers in the market make appealing offers and claims, such as ACLS certification in one hour. For many students, a one-hour certification is not feasible. ACLS necessitates a solid foundation of medical knowledge and experience, which may or may not be the same for all applicants.


5. What is the duration of an ACLS certificate?

The validity of an ACLS certificate is two years.

When Google collided with the Indian Institute of Emergency Medicine!

Many individuals still believe that emergency medical training is something that only doctors should perform. However, as you are aware, the term "emergency" refers to a situation that cannot wait for someone or anything to happen! This emergency can occur anywhere and at any moment, and it often does so at the most inconvenient times. This is where persons who have taken courses in emergency and disaster preparedness come in handy. In life-threatening situations, such people can save lives. On a typical day, a person spends the most of his time at work rather than at home. As a result, there are increased chances of an emergency situation occurring at work! Working professionals might benefit from corporate first aid training by assisting and supporting one another in such instances. This is why corporations should adopt the fundamentals of CPR training (AHA) and first aid training (AHA). The AHA recognised First Aid CPR AED Heartsaver course from IIEMS was provided to Googl

  Why Emergency Medical Services in India? Did you know there are more than 100,000 road/traffic-related deaths a year?  There are still around 40-60% of ambulances that do not have any medical equipment and around 95% of ambulances do not have trained personnel. All of these lead to one result- the death of the victim! Emergency Medical Services consist of a set up an initial response team along with facilities to efficiently respond to accidents and save deaths. Such a team and facilities  How do other countries reduce deaths caused by accidents? Well, we are not going into the comparison of road infrastructures of many developed countries with ours. In terms of emergency services, the least time the emergency response team takes to arrive at the place of the incident is 7 minutes. They still keep on improving the speed at which the response team arrives and the skills of the team. The aim here is to save the victim before getting them to ICU. India has a lot to learn from the countr
