- Abstract
The Immediate Life Support (ILS) course is a 1 day programme designed by the Resuscitation Council (UK) to bridge the gap between Basic Life Support (BLS) and Advanced Life Support (ALS). During the build up to Operation TELIC, the aim was to provide ILS training to all staff who may be involved in the acute care of patients within PCRF ARGUS, and also to members of staff from other units who may be involved in similar situations. In total, 101 staff received ILS training during Op TELIC, all of whom were successful in completing the course.
