Designed by Rural Generalists, the Advanced Life Support
Level 2 (ALS2) course was created to meet the needs of rural
doctors to support and enable them to exceed the standards set
by the Australian Resuscitation Council. This two-day course provides you with the knowledge
and skills to demonstrate your competency and improve your confidence in
leading and managing Advanced Life Support presentations in rural clinical
settings.
The
first component of the course is self-directed online learning and is designed
to refresh and reinforce ALS guidelines, update new recommendations and
evidence, and review the pharmacology and relevant pathophysiology components
required to succeed in the course. The online modules will take approximately
one day to complete.
The
second part of the course is delivered face-to-face. This training focuses on
reinforcing your experience and knowledge by applying the online learning
content and contextualising it to the rural environment. Delivered in a
peer-to-peer learning environment, the one-day face-to-face training allows you
to work with facilitators and other participants on a variety of real-world
scenarios to demonstrate competency.
It is recommended that participants register for the course at
least 4 weeks prior to the hands-on workshop days to ensure that you have
enough time to complete the online learning hours.
Complete the Online Modules and MCQ assessment.
Complete an evaluation of the course.
It is mandatory that participants complete the self-directed online learning
program (inclusive of MCQs) prior to attending the full day face to face
workshop and competency validation.
Is it also mandatory that participants be present for the entire duration of the face
to face workshop (8 am to 5 pm local time).
If for any reason a participant arrives after the course has commenced
or departs before the end of the course, they will be ineligible to compete
the course or be allocated the CPD/MOPS points. The participant may be required to
re-book which will incur additional charges.
