Neonatal Advanced Life Support (NALS) - Coming Early 2025

Advancing Resuscitation Education for Better Outcomes
The American Red Cross, in collaboration with the Association of Women’s Health, Obstetric and Neonatal Nurses (AWHONN), is expanding its resuscitation education to include two blended learning NALS course options: Foundations (traditional e-learning providing a solid understanding of foundational concepts in neonatal resuscitation) and Comprehensive (adaptive and case learning tailored to comprehensive understanding and application of neonatal resuscitation techniques and protocols). By broadening the reach of neonatal resuscitation education to not just in-hospital settings but also birthing centers and emergency medical services (EMS), healthcare providers will be better equipped with the critical skills and knowledge to improve neonatal outcomes.
