AMLS, Advanced Medical Life Support, Provider course, is a 16-hour course for EMTs, paramedics, nurses, physician assistants, nurse practitioners and physicians. Students learn to recognize and manage common medical crises through realistic case-based scenarios that challenge students to apply their knowledge to highly critical patients. The course emphasizes the use of scene size-up, first impression, history, interactive group discussion on differential diagnosis and potential treatment strategies, and physical exam to systematically rule out and consider possibilities and probabilities in treating patients’ medical crises.
