The Advanced Trauma Life Support® (ATLS®) program was developed by the American College of Surgeons (ACS) Committee on Trauma (COT) and provides a systematic, concise approach to the care of a trauma patient. The course teaches you how to assess a patient’s condition rapidly and accurately, resuscitate and stabilize the patient, and determine if the patient’s needs exceed a facility’s capabilities.
ATLS® is applicable in both large urban trauma centers and small rural emergency departments. The course is intended for attending physicians, fellows, residents, and advanced practice providers, however RNs and pre-hospital providers may audit the course.
For course information, registration, and availability, please contact Andrea Rinker, Trauma Program Manager at [email protected].
Registration is complete once payment is received. There are NO REFUNDS for ATLS® courses. Please do not register for the course if you are unable to attend.
Course cost includes the ATLS® textbook. Course materials will be sent approximately one month prior to the scheduled class date.
