That said the Quality Development Team is here to help you succeed:Go to Lake EMS website () and click on tab titled Staff.Log in with your User name and Password.Click on the Reference/Shift Calendar link.And then scroll down to the Study Assistance section. Here you will find the ACLS Study Assistance for Lake EMS employees. Please note that this program is limited to Lake EMS employees as a guide to help you in upcoming ACLS classes.The ACLS Study Assistance covers all aspects that show on the test; not the actual questions, but the pages where key information is found. The information follows the flow of the textbook.This combined ACLS and CPR Refresher program is based on the newly released AHA guidelines. This testing opportunity is only available for EMS professionals living and or working in Lake County.Attendees who wish to solely complete the CPR component can leave after they have completed the BLS section; all ACLS participants must attend from the beginning of the CPR component even if they just completed a class. This meets the minimum ACLS criteria of the AHA. EMTs that would like to stay for the ACLS component will receive Cardiac CEUs but not an ACLS card. ................
