Course Objectives:
The Immediate Life Support (ILS) course aims to provide healthcare professionals with
the requisite knowledge and skills to:
• Perform a structured ABCDE approach that facilitates rapid
recognition of the seriously ill patient;
• Recognise the seriously ill patient and initiate appropriate treatment
interventions to prevent cardiorespiratory arrest;
• Treat patients in respiratory or cardiorespiratory arrest until the
arrival of a resuscitation team or more experienced assistance;
• Prepare to become members of a cardiac arrest team
Target Audience:
The ILS course will address the needs of Medical and Nursing staff who need more
advanced skills than those taught during basic life support (BLS), but who do not
require the more comprehensive two day Advanced Life Support (ALS) course.
