Pediatric advanced life support training can prepare you to handle severe emergency situations. Whether you work in a medical setting, hospital, or clinic there are key benefits to enrolling in a training class.

1. Brush up on your skill. Maybe you took a pediatric advanced life support training class in the past. Most certificates are valid for two years. If it’s been over two years, it pays to brush up on your skills. This ensure that you’re 100% ready to handle an emergency.

2. Don’t have to wait on medical personnel. Even if you call an ambulance at the first sign of distress, it can take several minutes for help to arrive at your location. With a background in pediatric advanced life support training, you can provide the child with needed medical care until an ambulance arrives. This can be the difference between life or death.

3. Peace of mind. Emergencies can happen at anytime. A training course can provide peace of mind, wherein you’re ready to administer care in a life-threatening situation.

I spent 15 years as a firefighter and paramedic...

And too often I would arrive on the scene of someone unconscious, surrounded by a circle of people feeling helpless. Sometimes those people would even have CPR training but lacked the confidence and experience to act.

That’s why I started SureFire CPR. Our classes are practical and engaging – teaching you the crucial skills you need to know what to do and feel empowered to take action.
