BLS, ACLS, and PALS Certification Tracking
Track Basic Life Support, ACLS, and PALS certification renewal across your clinical team.
Why this gets hard to manage manually
BLS, ACLS, and PALS are distinct resuscitation certifications, each on its own typical 2-year renewal cycle, and different clinical roles need different combinations. ComplyNestly tracks each separately per employee.
A clinician can hold BLS but not ACLS, or ACLS but not PALS — treating these as one generic "CPR certification" line item misses gaps that matter in a clinical setting.
- Hospitals, urgent care centers, and ambulatory surgery centers
- Nursing and clinical education coordinators
- Facilities scheduling clinical staff around current certification

Frequently asked questions
Do all clinical staff need all three?
No — requirements depend on role and department. A general medical-surgical nurse might need BLS only, while an ICU or ED nurse might need BLS and ACLS.
Who issues these certifications?
Most commonly the American Heart Association, though other organizations offer equivalent courses — confirm which your facility accepts.
Is there a free way to try this?
Yes. The Free plan supports up to 5 employees and 1 location, no credit card required.
Where this information comes from
BLS/ACLS/PALS are private certifications (commonly via the American Heart Association), not government-issued licenses — renewal periods are typically 2 years but confirm with your specific course provider.

ComplyNestly helps you organize records and stay ahead of renewal dates — it does not verify licenses, provide legal advice, or guarantee compliance. Requirements vary by state, jurisdiction, and employer policy; confirm current requirements with the issuing authority.
