For medical professionals seeking PALS certification, Arizona has some challenging statistics that you should be aware of. With childhood obesity over 30%, 7% of babies having a low birth weight and 19% of the population without adequate healthcare there is a need for medical professionals to stay on top of the latest information regarding PALS certification. Arizona is working hard to improve these statistics through education and training and we are proud to be a part of the solution by offering certification courses that you need at affordable pricing backed by excellent support.
For medical professionals involved in BLS certification, AZ statistics are a mix of good news and bad. Arizona residents have the highest life expectancy in the region and a lower adult obesity rate than other states in the region. Regarding areas of concern for medical professions that have an impact on the need for BLS certification, AZ has 11.4% of the population diagnosed with diabetes and over 40% of all adults in the state have high cholesterol. Recently the state of Arizona has stressed the importance of emergency dispatchers to assist bystanders at the scene to begin CPR within one minute of calling 911. For this reason many emergency systems and medical services are educating the public on the importance of basic CPR and tightening up on ACLS certification Arizona first responders will need to continue the basic support measures begun by civilians.
Our online certification courses are efficient ways to obtain the ACLS certification Arizona medical professionals need to stay informed of the latest in support standards. We back all our courses with excellent support. If you fail to pass any of our recertification exams, we provide feedback on the questions missed and offer up to three free exams retakes.
The state of Arizona ranks best and worst in a number of different categories when compared to the other states in the Southwestern Region of the United States.
The average life expectancy of a resident of Arizona is seventy nine years and eleven months (79.9). Arizonans have the highest life expectancy in the region.
Also in favor of Arizona is the rate of adult obesity. Only twenty-four point seven percent (24.7%) of adults in Arizona are obese. This is significantly less than Texas at thirty two point seven percent (32.7%).
Arizona also ranks poorly in some categories. For instance, Arizona has the highest rate of diabetes in the region at eleven point four percent (11.4%). Arizona also has the highest rate of adults with high cholesterol at forty point nine percent (40.9%).

Mar 8, 2025 -- When a man collapsed at the golf course, 16-year-old Perry High School student Gabe Castro quickly jumped into action.

The man is now recovering, deeply thankful for Gabe’s quick thinking and courage. Just months earlier, Gabe had learned CPR in a sports medicine class. Though he's now being praised as a hero, Gabe humbly says he just did what anyone should do in an emergency. His real-life rescue is a powerful example of the value of lifesaving training.
