See it coming. Intervene early. Prevent a code.
Ideally, your job isn't to run a good code...but to prevent the code from ever happening. The early warning signs are key — know them, notice them, and interpret them within the whole clinical picture, then act appropriately and confidently.

When a patient begins deteriorating, are you overwhelmed and uncertain?
Are you afraid you'll miss subtle but crucial clues?
Demonstrate confidence, competence, and proficiency during the next patient crisis.
This online course will walk you step by step through the skills you need — from good communication to advanced critical thinking, and everything in between.
 
Simulation Lab Video Case Studies
Three real-life scenarios are brought to life in this unique online course.

The 'patient' talks, vital signs change, and EKG rhythms require interpretation. Quick assessments, on-target interventions, and critical thinking are demonstrated and explained.

A debriefing follows each scenario to look at what was done well, and what could have been done better.

Simulation Lab Scenarios to Prevent a Real Patient Crisis
with Robin Gilbert, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN
Simulation Lab Video Case Studies
Robin Gilbert, MSN, RN, CEN, CPEN, will use simulation scenarios to identify patients whose condition is deteriorating, the appropriate interventions, and desired outcomes. Simulation provides a non-threatening approach to high-risk scenarios that will ultimately improve patient safety. The realism of simulation can improve failure to rescue situations in actual patient care. During the scenarios, the mannequins will respond based on the interventions delivered for a variety of high-risk situations, including:
  • Pulmonary Embolism
  • Shock
  • Sepsis
  • Respiratory Crisis
  • Acute Change in LOC
Viewing these simulations will allow you to think through the action you might plan to take for the patient and further reflect on her best practice recommendations and rationale that follow. Virtual simulation is self-paced to allow for personal assessment of strengths and weaknesses. Learning through simulation scenarios provides immediate feedback in a safe environment, which builds confidence and provides an excellent bridge to real-life patient care situations.
