Rural GPs are invited to attend Rural Doctors Network (RDN)'s Advanced Life Support 1 workshop which will be held at Wesley Convention Centre, Sydney on Thursday 27th November.

This workshop will enhance your skills, knowledge, and confidence in managing medical emergencies, including cardiac arrest. You will learn to recognise, assess, and immediately manage deteriorating patients.

The course meets the Australian Resuscitation Council (ARC) standards for Advanced Life Support Level 1 and covers:

• Recognition, assessment, and management of critically ill patients using a structured ABCDE approach to prevent cardiac arrest
• Airway management skills
• Basic Life Support
• Defibrillation skills (manual and/or AED modes)
• Cardiac arrest management using the ARC ALS algorithm
• Effective teamwork in a cardiac arrest scenario

No formal prerequisites are required; however, participants should be proficient in CPR. A manual will be provided for your review and will either be posted or you will receive it at the event - depending on the timing of your registration

The workshop is accredited for CPD and PDP with RACGP and ACRRM, and recognised by the ARC. You will receive an ALS Certificate valid for 4 years, an ARC-issued ALS Provider Wallet Card, and Basic Life Support certification.

This workshop is part of Rural Health Month and adjoins RDN's flagship Rural GPs Conference which will be held just across the road at Hilton Sydney. If you would like to attend both, a link to register will be provided when you complete this registration.

Attendees maybe eligible for the Health Workforce Scholarship Program. Please review the new process, timings, and guidelines here.
