e-learning Immediate Life Support (e-ILS)

Blended Learning

Overview

Our e-learning Immediate Life Support (e-ILS) course, designed and accredited by the Resuscitation Council UK (RCUK), provides healthcare professionals with vital emergency response skills to effectively manage deteriorating patients and prevent cardiopulmonary arrest.

The e-ILS course utilises a blended learning format, combining half a day of interactive online training with half a day of in-person practical training at one of our certified Course Centres. This approach allows participants to learn the theoretical concepts remotely before attending a hands-on session to practice essential life support techniques in a controlled environment.

Both the e-ILS and the standard Immediate Life Support (ILS) courses lead to the same RCUK certification and qualification, ensuring consistency in learning outcomes. The e-ILS certification is widely recognised across the UK, the EU, and Australia.

Our e-learning Immediate Life Support (e-ILS) course is designed for a wide range of healthcare professionals and emergency service personnel who may need to respond to critical medical situations. This includes doctors, nurses, medical students, midwives, operating department practitioners (ODPs), paramedics, physiotherapists, and dental practitioners. The programme is also ideal for professionals in other health and care sectors seeking to enhance their emergency response skills. in addition to fire service responders, police officers, prison staff, and cabin crew members, providing them with the necessary knowledge and skills to effectively manage life-threatening emergencies until advanced help arrives.

Syllabus

•Performing effective CPR, manual defibrillation, and using an automated external defibrillator (AED) along with basic airway management techniques.

Assessment

Assessment is conducted continuously throughout the Immediate Life Support (ILS) course, through dedicated assessment forms designed to evaluate each participant’s proficiency in core life support skills. These assessment forms, along with the course manual, will be provided to candidates before the start of the training to ensure adequate preparation.

Upon successfully completing the course, participants will be awarded an RCUK Immediate Life Support certificate.
