ACLS Renewal in Chicago: Stay Certified with Chicago’s Pulse

Why ACLS Renewal Matters

If you're working in emergency care or critical care environments, ACLS certification is not optional—it’s a requirement. But did you know your certification expires every two years?

To stay current with the latest American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines and maintain your qualifications, you must complete a renewal course before your certification lapses.

Chicago’s Pulse offers efficient, AHA-compliant ACLS renewal classes in Chicago for medical professionals who need a streamlined way to stay certified.


Who Should Take ACLS Renewal Courses?

ACLS renewal is designed for healthcare providers who already hold a valid ACLS certification. You’ll benefit most if you:

✅ Work in a high-acuity unit such as ICU, ER, or telemetry
✅ Are a nurse, physician, EMT, or respiratory therapist
✅ Have previously completed an AHA ACLS provider course
✅ Need recertification for licensing, hospital, or job requirements

If your certification has already expired, contact us—we can help determine whether a renewal or full course is best.


What’s Covered in the ACLS Renewal Course?

Our ACLS renewal course is a refresher that reinforces essential skills and covers AHA updates since your last certification. It includes:

1. High-Performance Team-Based Resuscitation

  • Practicing coordinated team roles during resuscitation

  • Simulated cardiac arrest scenarios for real-world practice

2. AHA Algorithm Review and Updates

  • Review of latest ACLS algorithms for rhythm-specific emergencies

  • Recognition and treatment of VF, VT, PEA, asystole, and bradycardia

3. ECG Interpretation and Pharmacology

  • Rapid rhythm recognition and critical medication review

  • Dosage, timing, and administration in emergent care

4. Hands-On Skills Practice and Evaluation

  • Effective CPR and AED use

  • Airway management and IV access skills

5. Final Written Exam and Skills Check-Off

  • Complete AHA-required written and hands-on evaluations to renew your certification

When Should You Renew Your ACLS Certification?

We recommend starting the renewal process at least 60 days before your expiration date to avoid disruption in employment or compliance.
