BECOMING A PALS INSTRUCTOR
The PALS Provider course is the second component of three in the process of becoming a PALS Instructor. The three components required in becoming a PALS Instructor include:

  1. Current PALS Provider or Renewal Certification
  2. PALS Instructor Course completion
  3. PALS Course Co-Facilitation and Monitoring with an experienced PALS Instructor (arranged by you and an experienced PALS Instructor)

After successful PALS Co-Facilitation and Monitoring, an instructor fee of $75 will be required by the Heart and Stroke Foundation to receive PALS Instructor Certification credentials.

PREREQUISITES
The PALS Instructor Course is delivered in partnership with the Heart and Stroke Foundation of Canada. The following prerequisites are required:

  • Basic Life Support Course completion within 12 months (optional add-on – see below when registering)
  • PALS Provider or Renewal Course within 24 months
  • HSF Core Instructor Training (online)
  • Emergency and/or critical pediatric care in hospital or pre-hospital for at least one year
  • ECG Rhythm Interpretation proficiency

MANDATORY RESOURCES
The following resources are mandatory when attending the PALS Instructor Course and can be purchased directly from the HSF website.

WHAT YOU WILL DO
The session includes an overview of the key components of a PALS course with core skill review of BLS, electrical therapy, airway management, use of the pediatric sizing tape, team dynamics, feedback, debriefing and communication. These skills are reviewed in a hands-on exercises with ample opportunities for skill practice, feedback and questions. The session combines facilitation techniques with core PALS topics to practice skill review, case studies, practice scenarios and student evaluation / remediation. The Heart and Stroke portal will be introduced and instructor materials reviewed.

PRECOURSE PREPARATION
Before attending the PALS Instructor course, review the course materials with particular focus on the core PALS skills and the PALS Instructor manual. Be ready to be supported by instructor trainers with skills that they employ in PALS courses. Expect the course to be worth the time spent, serving as an important foundation to your impact as an PALS Instructor.

You are welcome to audit one or more PALS courses with us before or after the PALS Instructor course before your co-facilitation and monitoring. Simply email us to let us know which course you would like to attend. The course calendar is found via the link at the top of this page.
