Emergency Cardiac Care

Advanced Cardiac Life Support (ACLS)

Imagine being able to save the life of a loved one. In partnership with the American Heart Association (AHA), we make this possible for you! Through the ECC programme, four levels of training and certification are offered for beginners/laypersons, health care providers, and medical students.

All the Heart and Stroke Foundation’s training courses under this programme are conducted by volunteer instructors accredited by the American Heart Association (AHA) through the use of approved training manuals. A robust process is followed to ensure that instructors remain certified to conduct the training courses. Successful participants of the training are awarded AHA certificates and should be re-certified every two years.

The department operates under the oversight of a Medical Director, ECC, Dr. Anne-Marie Cruickshank.
