The goal of the PALS health care, first aid course is to improve the quality of care provided to seriously ill or injured children. This course uses a series of simulated pediatric emergencies to reinforce the importance of a systematic approach to pediatric assessment, first aid, health care, basic life support, effective resuscitation, and team dynamics.
