NZ Resuscitation Council Newborn Life Support (NLS)


NLS Immediate

NLS Immediate is for rescuers who might be expected to manage the early stages of resuscitation events in the newborn. The NZ Resuscitation Council awards NLS Immediate certificates but does not determine which rescuers may attend this course, other than they must be health professionals. NLS Immediate rescuers are likely to include:
​
Registered Midwives (including non-hospital, rural)
Nurses who may respond (Critical Care, Emergency Department, PACU, Theatre)
Duty Nurse Managers
RMOs
Anaesthetic Technicians
Paramedics

NLS Skills
NLS Skills is a flexible form of NLS skill training that enables a provider to deliver any number of components or modules from NLS Advanced. It is available for learners who do not want to, or cannot, be assessed in practical and theoretical skills of resuscitation. Learners receive a Confirmation of Attendance from the instructor, but the course does not lead to NZ Resuscitation Council certification.
