BLS/ACLS/PALS for graduating MS4s
Congratulations all! For those who are graduating in June:
If your BLS certification expires in May or beyond you are NOT required by UWSOM to renew your BLS.
However, if you want to stay current with your BLS certification and you are in Seattle, you can still use the UW discount code to register for a BLS class ($54 versus $79 without the discount). You can also receive a discount for ACLS and PALS if/when you need it for residency.
If you are in Seattle, you can receive a discounted rate through Cascade Healthcare Services.
For questions, contact Laura Ellis: lbellis@uw.edu.
To register for a course at Cascade Training Center:
- Go to classes.chealthcare.com/UWSOM
- Select a course date and location
- Create a new student profile or login if you already have an account
