Medical students in their final year of training can be accepted as candidates on an ALS course if this is an established local arrangement. Learning outcomes The ALS course teaches the knowledge and skills required to: • recognise and treat the deteriorating patient using a structured ABCDE approach • deliver standardised CPR in adults • manage a cardiac arrest by working with a multidisciplinary team in an emergency situation • utilise non-technical skills to facilitate strong team leadership and effective team membership. Additional details will be posted as soon as they are available.
