Online nursing certification
Earning a degree or diploma in nursing is certainly the first step to starting your career in the healthcare field, but gaining additional certifications can be a beneficial move as you look to grow and advance. ACLS, BLS and PALS certifications, as well as CPR, first aid and AED training courses are all available online and can help to bolster your resume when you’re looking to move up in the nursing field.

Health Ed Solutions, the leading provider of online certification, offers flexible PALS, BLS and ACLS online training, certification and recertification to healthcare professionals.

Stay up to date
Healthcare is a field that is constantly changing as new technologies are developed and new research is completed. It’s important that nurses – and all healthcare professionals – stay up to date on the recent happenings and educational advancements in their field. If you are ACLS or PALS certified, it’s important to recertify every two years, and for BLS every year. It’s also vital to be cognizant of changes to ACLS, PALS and BLS guidelines so that you can continue to provide the utmost of care.

Adding recertification classes to your workload can be intimidating, but Health Ed Solutions makes it easier with its ACLS renewal online. You can complete the recertification process online and on your own time, when it’s convenient for you.
