Thanks all, especially you, delilas, for an extremely helpful link. I'm printing it out right now and am going to incorporate pop quizzes on the thing as our daily routine. I think I'm going to miss you most of all.

I've been on a medsurg/tele floor for years. At the onset of a code we all know how to hook it up, okay. Now what? We take ACLS every 2 years but that's not the ACLS class of the past where nobody could pass. I've asked my coworkers and nobody knows what to do with the thing, how to stack shocks, what voltage to start, how to pace, none of it. In another thread I saw someone post the website with Zoll directions. And the info that we can have an educator educate us on it. As I've said, we take ACLS every 2 years and it doesn't sink in, so we need more than an educator. And reading the directions is not going to help, we need hands on and repetition. So my question: does anyone know of a site where one can learn it through scenarios, testing, retesting? How can we learn this Zoll and make it stick?
