Minor freak out..upcoming ACLS class

Published

My outpatient workplace is seeking accrediation and I have to get ACLS certified this month. I've got the book and I'm signed up for a class in two weeks but I'm nervous because I haven't read rhythm strips in years.

Is anybody else randomly ACLS certified? We really won't be using this in the workplace but it's part of the "checklist". We have an AED and drugs for contrast reactions.

This was not a part of the requirement when I was hired because I would have began studying and preparing before now.

Specializes in LTC, med/surg, hospice.

Update, I passed the class. It was a lot of fun.

Specializes in Emergency Department.

The classes can be fun with a good instructor. Mostly, now that you have been given an intro to resuscitation, start reading more about it. The real learning begins... now!
