Course Information: ADLS is a 2 Day advanced practicum course for the trained BDLS provider developed by the National Disaster Life Support (NDLS) consortium of academic, state and federal centers. It is an intensive, 2-day course that allows students to demonstrate competencies in casualty decontamination, specified essential skills and mass casualty incident information systems/technology applications. Using simulated, all-hazards scenarios and mass causality incidents, ADLS makes use of four interactive sessions in which participants treat simulated patients in various disaster drills and situations.
