Certification will be considered current if completed on or after July 1, 2022.  \nPlease upload your most recent ACLS/BLS certification regardless of completion date.  \nWe strongly encourage certification prior to orientation, as this frees up a significant amount of time for you to complete other tasks  \nACLS Requirements  \nJune 2023 Orientation (PGY-1): ACLS certification is required for all, except Pediatrics. Certification must be current (completed on or after 7/1/2022) and the card must be uploaded to MedHub in order to be exempt from on-site training during orientation. If you do not have current certification or fail to upload the document in MedHub by 4/30/2023 you will be scheduled for an ACLS practical at orientation. Please notify the GME Office if you plan to recertify prior to orientation.  \nJuly 2023 Orientation (PGY-2+): ACLS certification is a program specific requirement (please reference the table below) . If your program requires ACLS, certification must be current (completed on or after 7/1/2022) and the card must be uploaded to MedHub in order to be exempt from on-site training after orientation. If you do not have current certification or fail to upload the document in MedHub by 4/30/2023 you will be scheduled for an ACLS practical by your program coordinator.  \nBLS Requirements  \nJune & July Orientations: BLS is required for all individuals who do not have current ACLS or BLS certification. Certification must be current (completed on or after 7/1/2022) and uploaded to MedHub. If you do not have current certification or fail to upload the document in MedHub by 4/30/23 you will be scheduled for a BLS practical at orientation. Note: Upload of BLS certification is not required if your ACLS certification is current (completed on or after 7/1/2022) and you have uploaded the card. Please notify the GME Office if you plan to recertify prior to orientation. BLS certification is a prerequisite to ACLS training. If you have a current ACLS certification (completed on or after 7/1/2022), you are not required to recertify BLS.  \nATLS and PALS Requirements  \nAll Trainees: ATLS and PALS certification requirements are program specific, and compliance is not tracked by GME. Please reference the table below. Incoming residents will typically be certified during program orientation, if not already certified. If you have questions regarding ATLS or PALS certification, please contact your Program Coordinator.  \n\n| Program | GME/Program Requirements |  |  | Program Only Requirements |  |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Residency Programs | ACLSPGY-1 | ACLSPGY-2+ | BLS | ATLS | PALS |\n| Anesthesiology | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes | Yes |\n| Dermatology |  | No |  | No | No |\n| Emergency Medicine |  | Yes |  | Yes | Yes |\n| Internal Medicine |  |  |  | No | No |\n| Neurology |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Neurological Surgery |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Obstetrics & Gynecology |  | Recommended |  |  |  |\n| Ophthalmology |  | No |  |  |  |\n| Orthopaedic Surgery |  |  |  | Yes |  |\n| Otolaryngology – Head and Neck Surgery |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Pathology – Anatomic and Clinical |  |  |  | No |  |\n| Pediatrics | *PALS Instead |  |  |  | Yes |\n| Plastic Surgery | Yes |  |  |  | No |\n| Plastic Surgery-Integrated |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Preventive Medicine | *See Home Program | *See Home Program |  | *See Home Program | *See Home Program |\n| Psychiatry | Yes | No |  | No | No |\n| Radiation Oncology |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Radiology, Interventional Radiology-Integrated |  | Yes |  |  |  |\n| Radiology, Radiology-Diagnostic |  |  |  |  |  |\n| Surgery |  |  |  | Yes |  |\n| Urology |  | No |  |  |  |\n| Vascular Surgery-Integrated |  | Yes |  | No |  |\n\nSeepage 2 for fellowship Programs  \n\n| Program | GME/Program Requirements |  |  | Program Only Requirements |  |","cbCaivxQ1hXc89Jd","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaivxQ1hXc89Jd","pdf",694869,"English","# ACLS and BLS Certification Currency\n## June 2023 Orientation (PGY-1)\n## July 2023 Orientation (PGY-2+)\n# BLS Certification Requirements\n## June & July Orientations\n## BLS Prerequisite to ACLS Training\n# ATLS and PALS Requirements\n## Program-specific compliance and contacts\n# Program Requirement Tables\n## Residency Programs\n## Fellowship Programs","[{\"question\":\"When is an AHA ACLS or BLS certification considered current?\",\"answer\":\"Certification is considered current if it is completed on or after July 1, 2022.\"},{\"question\":\"What happens if an ACLS card is not uploaded to MedHub by April 30, 2023 for the June 2023 (PGY-1) orientation?\",\"answer\":\"If the certification is not current or the card is not uploaded to MedHub by 4/30/2023, the trainee will be scheduled for an ACLS practical at orientation.\"},{\"question\":\"Is BLS upload required if a trainee already has current ACLS?\",\"answer\":\"No. Upload of BLS certification is not required if ACLS is current (completed on or after 7/1/2022) and the ACLS card has been uploaded.\"}]","ACLS/BLS Requirements | PDF"]
