RECOVER CPR Rescuer Certification - Basic and Advanced Life Support Workshop

NOTE: Completing the prerequisite online courses before the workshop is required to participate. 

How do we best treat animals in cardiopulmonary arrest? Evidence-based veterinary CPR guidelines published by the RECOVER Initiative aimed at maximizing patient survival after cardiopulmonary arrest led to the official veterinary CPR certification process approved by the American College of Veterinary Emergency and Critical Care. This course will teach RECOVER Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS) concepts and techniques.The certification process consists of an online course followed by in-person training. Because of this, participants must have successfully completed the RECOVER online BLS and ALS courses available at learning.acvecc.org. Successful completion of the in-person workshop grants certification as a RECOVER BLS and ALS Rescuer. Human medical professionals are certified in human CPR. Veterinary medical professionals should get certified in veterinary CPR! Registration for the online portion of the certifying course is included in the registration fee for the onsite portion to be held at the conference. Once registration for the onsite workshop is complete, participants will be notified with login information for the online portion of the course, which must be completed before the conference workshop. 

Prerequisite: Participants must complete the assigned online course (6 units, approximately 5-6 hrs) to participate in the workshop. Participants who do not complete their online courses will not be allowed into the workshop!
