Dear Healthcare Professional:

Good day! Thank you for your interest in our American Heart Association (AHA) Life Support courses.
The AHA continuously updates and publishes resuscitation guidelines which set the standard for
Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation (CPR) protocols around the world and make up the basis for the AHA
courses used to educate millions of healthcare professionals each year. AHA Life Support courses teach
the latest and most effective resuscitation practices using the best techniques in instruction and
simulation. Our commitment to quality training makes AHA the certification of choice for hospitals both
here and abroad.

The Academy of Emergency Sciences (AES) is glad to offer these courses to you. Below is an overview
of the different courses we provide:

COURSE CONTENT
Basic Life Support (BLS) Provider Course
• High quality CPR for adults, children, and infants
• The AHA Chain of Survival, specifically the BLS components
• Use of an AED
• Effective ventilations using a barrier device
• Importance of teams in a multi-rescuer CPR
• Relief of foreign-body airway obstruction (choking) for adults and infants

Advanced Cardiovascular Life Support (ACLS) Provider Course

• Basic life support skills, including effective chest compressions, use of a bag-mask device, and
use of an AED
• Recognition and early management of respiratory and cardiac arrest
• Recognition and early management of peri-arrest conditions such as symptomatic bradycardia
• Airway management
• Related pharmacology
• Management of ACS & Stroke
• Effective communication as a member and leader of a resuscitation team

WHAT MAKES TRAINING WITH US DIFFERENT?

While there are many training centers that you can choose from, the Academy of Emergency Sciences
offers an advantage that students won’t get anywhere else --- experience. Lots of it! Our AHA courses are
taught and supervised by actively practicing Emergency Medicine specialists who resuscitate the critically
ill on a daily basis. We confidently teach skills like ECG interpretation, team management, defibrillation,
intubation, cardioversion, and pacing among others, because we’ve performed them on multiple
occasions on actual patients. We do not merely talk about them in theory. Our work in the ER allows us to
teach resuscitation from an authentic point of view, bridging the gaps between classroom know-how and
real world skills. We will give you the confidence and competence needed to step-up when your patient’s
life is on the line.

Emergency care is our calling; education, our passion.

IMPORTANT INFO FOR RENEWAL STUDENTS

Students renewing their AHA BLS, ACLS, or PALS must bring their expired AHA course completion cards
on the day of class for inspection. Only AHA course completion cards dated 2016 onwards will be
accepted. Furthermore, the AHA requires students to have the latest AHA paperback manuals or ebooks
before, during, and after the course. If a student fails to present their expired AHA course completion card
or do not bring their AHA paperback manuals or ebooks to class, they will be charged Php 700 for a BLS
ebook and Php 2000 for an ACLS ebook. Failure to comply will forfeit the reservation fee in favor of the
training center and the student will not be allowed to take the course.

The American Heart Association strongly promotes knowledge and proficiency in all AHA courses and
has developed instructional materials for this purpose. Use of these materials in an educational course
does not represent course sponsorship by the AHA. Any fees charged for such a course, except for a
portion of fees needed for AHA course materials, do not represent income to the AHA.
