Tips To Help You Succeed

1. No Instructor Will Be Present!

Remember, you'll be working with the Voice Assisted Manikin when doing your skills session and there will be no instructor present.  We also have tips to help guide you and you can always call us if you have questions at 888-277-3143. Don't worry, you can take the tests as many times as needed until you pass.

2. Complete the Online Portion First!

You must complete the online portion before going in for the skills. The online portion is adaptive (meaning the more answers you get right, the shorter the test will take). Remember, you have to finish Part 1 before visiting our office!

3. Compression Depth and Chest Recoil

Hand placement, locking your elbows, and using the stepstool in the classroom will help you get proper depth. Make sure that you allow the chest to fully recoil. If you still are having problems, you can remove the grey pad beneath the manikin to compress deeper.

4. Two Rescuer CPR (You and the Computer)

Always count out loud when doing your compressions, this will help you stay on track during the 2 rescuer scenario.

5. Administering Breaths

The head tilt and chin lift can be a little tricky. Make sure the mask covers the entire nose and mouth and use the "C-E" grip. Place the middle, ring, and little fingers (the "E") under the jaw and pull it upward, while the thumb and index fingers create a "C" and press down against the mask. Be sure to tilt the head back to open the airway. If the breaths are not going in, try tilting the head back further. 

6. Switching Roles

When switching roles, make sure you transition quickly! Anticipate when you'll need to switch and move fast.

Frequently asked questions

When do I get my card?

You'll receive your American Heart Association PALS eCard immediately after completing the skills session, sent to the email address of your choice—no waiting!

How is the course offered 24 Hours a day?

We offer 24/7 availability for skills sessions because the online portion is completed at home, allowing flexibility. The hands-on skills session, which typically takes 20-45 minutes, is scheduled separately and offered every hour. Each appointment is allotted one hour, and most of our locations are open 24/7. If you schedule a session outside of regular business hours, you'll receive an access code to enter the building.

How can I complete my skills session without an instructor present?

You’ll be using an American Heart Association Live Feedback Manikin, which will guide you through the 6 required skills and provide real-time feedback. No need to bring any equipment—everything is provided on-site.

We've also created helpful videos and tips, so be sure to watch them beforehand!

How does this course differ from online only options?

PALS AnytimeTM is not "online only" and is accepted at all hospitals in the USA. It contains hands-on and cognitive learning using new technology and voice-assisted manikins.

You will be able to receive your AHA PALS card the same day with our 24/7 access. The card is verified by the American Heart Association and is very different from discount "online only" options being offered.
