September 10, 2010

GOSHEN, IN – Elkhart General Hospital Emergency Medical Services is offering an International Trauma Life Support (ITLS) Course on Saturday, September 25 and Sunday, September 26 from 8:00am – 5:30pm at the Elkhart General Health Education Center, located at 2222 Rieth Blvd., next to the Lowe’s on US 33 in Goshen.

ITLS is designed for all levels of EMS professionals dedicated to providing quality prehospital trauma care. This two-day program combines classroom learning and hands-on small group skill stations. Scenario-based stations enable each participant to put learned principals to work in simulated trauma situations. This comprehensive approach provides the skills required to rapidly assess, resuscitate, stabilize, and transport victims of multiple traumas.

Cost for the course, including the textbook, is $100 for EGH affiliated providers and $125 for non-EGH affiliated providers. Registration is required. Call Elkhart General Hospital Emergency Medical Services at (574) 523-3127 or (574) 523-3291 for more information. To register, visit www.egh.org.
