Hi,
I'm a fourth year med student taking an extra year to do research. My ACLS will expire at the end of this year. My school says that I can do my fourth year without ACLS, but if I want to stay current I would have to pay $175 out of pocket.
My question is will all EM residencies put me through ACLS during their orientation, or am I potentially going to get jammed up by not having the cert when residency starts?
Also, would away EM rotations care if I don't have ACLS? Thanks.
