From the Australian Resuscitation Council, the Advanced Life Support 2 days course (ALS2) is the definitive course for medical professionals who are required to treat critically ill patients.
Candidates are expected to know basic life support and will be taught the additional elements that culminate in advanced life supports.
Throughout the 2 days candidates will receive lectures and take part in tutorials that teach them essential critical care skills. The greatest experience of the course is taking part in critical care simulations as both a team member and team leader.
By the end of day two each candidate will be confident that she or he can confidently treat critically ill patients with a wide range of pathology.
At Verdigris Medical Education we understand the requirement for continuing medical education and appreciate that our candidates will come from a wide background and many with years of experience. It is our policy to provide a faculty made up of only the most senior instructors (emergency medicine consultants, senior nursing staff and senior paramedics) who continue to treat critically ill patients on a daily basis.
Not only can we ensure that our teaching is up to date and of the highest quality, we can pass on clinical pearls only acquired from continually treating real patients!
Recognised by ACEM, ACRRM, RACGP, ANZCA, RACP and CICM.
The Advanced Life Support 2 Recertification course teaches the following knowledge and skills:
· Recognise, assess and manage the deteriorating patient using a structured ABCDE approach
· Treat cardiac and respiratory arrest, including manual defibrillation
· Manage life-threatening arrhythmias
· Prepare and plan for post-resuscitation care
· Care for the deteriorating patient or patient in cardiac and respiratory arrest in special circumstances such as asthma, anaphylaxis, and pregnancy
· Lead a team, work as a team member, and use structured communication skills, including giving an effective handover


Our ARC courses offer two full days of face-to-face training, combining lectures and hands-on practical experience. Participants receive a hard copy of the ARC 3rd edition manual ahead of the course for pre-reading, ensuring a comprehensive understanding.
Our programs are led by John, a FACEM- qualified Emergency Department Specialist and Course director, and David, an Emergency Department Specialist with national media experience. Together they lead a faculty of specialist clinicians dedicated to delivering rigorous, high-quality medical education grounded in clinical excellence and patient centred care

Organising medical education can be extremely difficult as the best instructors often have many other commitments. As a result, changes to our course numbers are not easy to accomodate. Consequently, our cancellation policy is as follows -Cancellation 29 days or more before a course entitles you to a full refund or transfer to a future course. Cancellation 28 days or less prior to a course results in forfeit of the course fee.
If we have to change a date or a venue of one of our courses, we will endeavour to give as much notice as possible. Verdigris Medical Education will not be responsible for any financial losses as a result of a date / venue change or course cancellation.

In recent years, a number of courses have been marketed as “Advanced Life Support” but are not the authentic course from the Australian Resuscitation Council.
With Verdigris, you can be assured that our Advanced Life Support Level 2 course is the genuine course from the Australian Resuscitation Council which maximises face to face teaching, is recognised Australia wide and is accredited with your CPD college.
