Dedicated to excellence in resuscitation - how it is taught and practised.
A new and alternative source for resuscitation guidelines and resources in Australia. Methods, techniques and guidelines based on evidence and common-sense.
Take Heart Australia brings together experts from healthcare, academia, community, government and the private sector to form a powerful, effective, integrated approach to saving lives. Our ultimate aim is to make it the norm – rather than the exception – to survive cardiac arrest.
This site contains guidelines and resources from another leading authority on resuscitation.
Statement: Medics for Life uses the ARC BLS/ALS Guidelines as required for client compliance with the monopoly-based guideline endorsement process in Australia. It is our view however, that whilst the ARC - ALS Guidelines (based on European guidelines) do represent best practice, Medics for Life cannot in good faith, at the current time, endorse the ARC - BLS Guidelines as representing best-practice in resuscitation, in our view there is not appropriate rigour or consultation in the methodology used in their development.
Medics for Life therefore reserves its right not to provide a link to the ARC website at this time.
