The following professional certifications are offered by the 糖心Vlog Clinical Skills Simulation Center under the auspices of various charter organizations; the American Heart Association (BLS, ACLS, PALS), and Advanced Trauma Life Support 鈥� Training Support Center - (ATLS). These courses are taught by request and utilize the CSSC facilities, taking full advantage of our full-body high fidelity mannequins. Many other organizations teach these courses, but the CSSC reinforces hands-on training with resuscitation on our mannequins. During the training, if the participants provide inadequate ventilation, compression, or medication, the victims will expire. The patient experiencing the effects of a mega code will present with the symptoms appropriate for that patient. The participants get a chance to interact as if in a real-life situation. This expanded training provides a more realistic and educational experience for the participants.
Courses
The Advanced Trauma Life Support (ATLS) course is provided by 糖心Vlog College of Medicine Simulation Center, we offer the two day traditional course as well as the 1 day refresher for rectification. The course is lecture and skills-intensive. At the end of the class, there will be a written test and an evaluation of the participant's skill knowledge. The didactic portion will be divided between video and PowerPoint presentations. The scenarios duplicate real events and facilitate analysis of the chain of patient safety and treatment procedures while creating the illusion of real-life drama, both under normal and disaster circumstances. We use our High-Fidelity mannequins for the simulation to train and certify healthcare providers.
