What is a PALS instructor?

A PALS (Pediatric Advanced Life Support) Instructor is a certified professional who teaches and evaluates healthcare providers in life-saving techniques for critically ill or injured children. They follow the American Heart Association (AHA) guidelines to train students in skills such as CPR, airway management, and emergency interventions. PALS Instructors conduct hands-on skills sessions, provide feedback, and ensure that participants meet certification requirements. They often work in hospitals, training centers, or educational institutions to improve pediatric emergency care.
