This page explains the ACLS certification process in Hawaii, including accreditation with its different government agencies and how to complete your certification online or in-person.
The official place to buy Pacific Medical Training brand ACLS, PALS, and BLS courses is this acls.net website.
Pacific Medical Training brand ACLS/PALS/BLS courses are accepted in Hawaii through the following accreditation bodies and agencies:
Our BLS course, ACLS course, and PALS courses are all accepted in Hawaii and every state in the United States. Our online certifications are also accepted in most international countries and regions. If for whatever reason you enroll in a course and it is not accepted, we offer a 100% money back guarantee for the first 14 days.
As a company spokesperson noted, each time a student takes an ACLS, PALS or BLS practice exam, the questions and answers are randomized. After completing the practice test, the students can see which questions they got right and which ones they got wrong. “These greatly improve the speed in which students can prepare for the final ACLS, BLS and PALS exams,” the spokesperson said.
Each state needs a competent medical workforce to meet the needs of its citizens. However, the requirements for some health care professions are not the same in each state. That is why it is important to find out what is required of you as a future or current registered nurse before moving across state lines. Contact information is located at the bottom of this page.
