November 2026 District 8 EPPC Advanced Disaster Life Support (ADLS) Course

This course targets hospital and clinical-focused personnel, EMS, and public health personnel interested in Disaster Preparedness. The ADLS course is designed to engage participants through interactive scenarios and group discussion beyond the regular scope of a Basic Disaster Life Support course. ADLS prepares clinical and public health management of all ages and populations affected by disasters and public health emergencies, through a standardized curriculum that is practical and relevant for all health professionals.

This course reviews “all-hazards” topics, including natural and accidental human-made events, traumatic and explosive events, nuclear and radiological events, biological events, and chemical events.

You’ll gain the ability to utilize the D.I.S.A.S.T.E.R. Paradigm. Students will understand the S.A.L.T. methodology for sorting patients in a mass casualty event. 

CDLS is not required before taking this course, but it will prove useful.

Space is limited. Meeting details and login info for the course will be sent just before the course begins. Lunch is on your own.
