Frequently Asked Questions

Why A.C.T.N.T. Healthcare Services for online ACLS?

  ●  HeartCode ACLS Anywhere™ still requires that you use an official American Heart

       Association Training Center to issue your all important ACLS card.

  ●  A.C.T.N.T Healthcare Services is one of the largest AHA Training Center in the

       Southwest United States and can issue your ACLS card upon completion.

What is HeartCode ACLS Anywhere?

HeartCode ACLS Anywhere™ is an official American Heart Association™ self-directed e-learning program.

 

An alternative to traditional, classroom-based ACLS training, the self-directed HeartCode(TM) ACLS eLearning program uses eSimulation technology to let students participate in realistic patient scenarios, assess patients based on the most recent American Heart Association guidelines, and formulate treatment -- online and at their own pace.

 

As they train, an evaluation mechanism and intelligent debriefing provide students with immediate and objective feedback on whether their actions were correct or incorrect, and offer suggestions for improvement.

Other features include:

  ●  Ability to treat multiple rhythms (mega-code) in the same scenario

  ●  New respiratory arrest case

  ●  New code clock; a team dynamics lesson

  ●  Pre-course self-assessment that helps students gauge their knowledge of ECG

       recognition and pharmacology

  ●  Access to patient scenarios and text material for up to two years

  ●  Full text (in PDF form) of the ACLS Provider Manual, the 2005 American Heart

       Association Guidelines For CPR And ECC, & the ACLS Core Drugs reference guide

 

The HeartCode ACLS Anywhere™ program consists of two parts.
  ●  Part 1 is the CD-based/Web-Based cognitive component that allows users to

       work through the ACLS training curriculum at their own pace, on the computer of their

       choice. No classroom training or attendance is required.
  ●  Part 2 is the very important skills verification process, which can only be performed by

       an AHA instructor.

Any AHA ACLS Instructor can perform the skills testing. Check off sheets are available for download at the bottom of this page.

Who is the target audience for ACLS Anywhere?

Available to individual healthcare providers, HeartCode ACLS Anywhere™ allows you to complete the ACLS courseware and exam, anytime, anywhere.

Can be used for initial or renewal certification.

What is included in HeartCode ACLS Anywhere?

  ●  Ten interactive patient scenarios
  ●  Pre-course self-assessment
  ●  Team dynamics lesson
  ●  Full texts of the ACLS Provider Manual,
  ●  2005 AHA Guidelines for CPR and ECC

EXTENSIVE REFERENCE MATERIALS:

  ●  Static Rhythm Recognition
  ●  ACLS Written Exam
  ●  AED Simulation
  ●  Core Case Simulations
REALISTIC PATIENT SCENARIOS:

now includes micro-simulation technology that improves both the educational content and the user-friendliness of the program.  Providers are presented with realistic patient cases and are required to interact with the program to assess the patient, formulate a treatment plan based on the the ACLS algorithms, and effect treatment.  This technology allows the simulated patient to react accordingly to the treatment provided -good or bad- in order to provide a learning experience, not just an evaluation.
INTELLIGENT DEBRIEFING:
Upon the completion of a given scenario, the provider is presented with a detailed debriefing screen.  This debriefing is more than just a list of events ending with a score.  Providers are presented with an account of their actions, calling out both correct and incorrect actions.  Suggestions for improvement are offered and all appropriate reference materials is hyperlinked to the debriefing, allowing immediate remediation at the conclusion of the scenario.

Training Center.
