This brand new Center at UB offers a unique opportunity to model aspects of team care so important to achieving optimal patient outcomes. The Behling Simulation Center helps prepare dental professionals via in-depth, hands-on training. It is an important extension of didactic instruction, allowing you to expand and fine-tune your abilities before facing a real-life situation. ACLS course, (Advanced
Cardiac Life support Course): Upon

manage cardiorespiratory emergencies by using the systematic ACLS
guidelines of the American Heart Association, (AHA). You will know how
to evaluate and manage a sudden adult respiratory arrest, VF/VT arrest,
asystole, pulseless electrical activity, bradycardias, stable and
unstable tachycardias, acute coronary syndromes and acute stroke. BLS,
(Basic Life Support, CPR, Cardiopulmonary Resuscitation Course for
Health Care Providers): Upon completion of this
class for the health care provider, the participant will be able to
describe the links in the American Heart Association (AHA) Chain of
survival. This will include the call to 911, performing 1 and 2 rescuer
CPR with rescue breathing using mouth to mouth, face shield, mouth to
mask, and bag mask device, and relieving foreign body airway obstruction
for the adult, child, or infant victim. PLEASE REGISTER ONLINE HERE! Ideally it is recommended that you have your own textbook but if you
