This one-day course provides ACCS trainees an excellent opportunity to train in the skills required to manage critically ill patients in the ward, emergency department or in intensive care.
Half the day is skills development and the other half immersive simulation.
Skills
In a safe simulated environment, it provides the opportunity to develop and practice the following skills with expert and experienced faculty.
Simulation
During the other half of the day candidates take part in immersive simulation scenarios targeted at difficult to hit curriculum areas and encourage development and reflection on non-technical skills as well as technical skills.
Those trainees undertaking their ICU block at time or course starting within the next 6 months will be prioritised for the limited places.
