PALS

Comprehensive study of pals covering fundamental concepts and advanced applications.

Practical Applications

PALS in Schools and Communities

Emergency Care Beyond Hospitals

PALS isn’t just for hospitals—schools and community centers can be places where emergencies happen. Teachers, coaches, and community leaders trained in PALS can respond quickly and confidently.

Real-Life Situations

  • Allergic reactions to school lunch
  • Collapse during sports
  • Breathing problems from asthma

Preparation and Prevention

  • Having emergency plans and equipment (like AEDs and EpiPens)
  • Training staff in basic PALS steps

The Impact

Early PALS interventions in schools and communities save time, prevent complications, and improve outcomes.

Examples

  • A school nurse uses PALS to care for a child having a seizure.

  • A soccer coach provides CPR and uses an AED after a player collapses.
