| This course is run by the Resus Counsil. ALS is expensive and a long wait. Do you think this is useful? |

It's Immediate Life Support and not Intermediate,of no use as ALS is also not counted these days for shortlisting,better do ATLS/EPLS/PALS.
Best of luck. |

i beg to differ with the above opinion.
ALS is very much counted for especially when applying for medical sho jobs, since u will be expected to be part of the arrest team
ATLS on the otherhand, falls in the surgical career pathway. Its an expensive course as it costs arounds £500 and waiting lists can be as long as 1 year |

to Guest ,
ALS is Advanced Life Support Course
ACLS is Advanced Cardiac Life Support Course.....
Hey, is it possible if we do a BLS/ACLS here at our home country whether thatwill suffice for the Job aplications there..?? Is it necessary that an ACLS/BLS/ ATLS should be taken in the UK AGAIN..??
Thanks & Regards to all & MERRY CHRISTMAS !!!!!!!!!!!

hi,
Its better if u do ACLS course in your country but these people want you to follow there rules and it will be essential for u to do the course in UK and get a Certificate by UK Resusitation Council . Mind you it very costly , 350 GBP. If you have done course from India as i have done, I think the course is sponsored by American Heart Association.So better do it here instead of spending money back home as well.
bye. |

hi Dr khan,
the ALTS course in india is around 3000 rs & you have rightly said ..it is accredted by the American Heart Association..!!
wel, so no use in doing the ALTS/BLS/ATLS course, as we shld do the sourse again in the United Kingdom..!!!!
Anyway, it costs just arnd 38 GBP ,when compared tothe 300 GBP in the UK !!!!!!!
