NRP: New Provider Neonatal Resuscitation Program Upcoming Courses
- Designed For: those who have not previously taken a NRP course or their NRP provider status has expired (see Certification below). Please review "Which ACLS, PALS, or NRP Course Is Right For Me?".
Description: This class is longer than the renewal course and includes more review and practice time. This course takes a step-wise approach to neonatal resuscitation. Successful completion of the megacode skills and written test is required for certification. Please note the following (according to the AHA/AAP):
- Pre-course preparation is required
- Learners perform skills checklists
- Depending on job responsibilities, participants must complete a minimum of Lessons 1 through 4 and Lesson 9
- It is recommended that persons responsible for performing a complete resuscitation (or providing direct assistance) should complete Lesson 1 through 6 and Lesson 9, and may benefit from all 9 lessons
- Learners review materials with instructor (in addition to the pre-course prep)
- Learners need ample opportunity for supervised megacode skills practice with an instructor
Certification: This card is valid for two years following your course completion date. To maintain your provider status, you may complete a Provider Renewal course prior to the “Recommended Renewal Date” listed on your card. Please note: Since the Academy does not grant a grace period, if you do not renew your provider status by the “Recommended Renewal Date,” you must repeat the standard length Provider course.
Agenda: 0800-1700; must attend all sessions to qualify for written and skills examination. Please be on time as course begins directly at start time.
