Course Description

In this two-day program, participants will explore selected topics that every med-surg healthcare practitioner should know. General concepts will be covered to allow application to a wide variety of care settings, and comprehensive assessment and treatment modalities will be introduced to stimulate the experienced clinician. Each topic will be presented in a case study format highlighting the “red flags” to watch for, along with cutting-edge treatment strategies, in order to prevent further deterioration for the patient and ultimately to prevent harm.

Program Learning Outcomes

This program prepares the learner to:

  • Discuss the assessment of the deteriorating medical-surgical patient using a systematic approach.
  • Discriminate between a variety of tests and lab results in order to determine if the patient is on the right course.
  • Describe the best care and treatment modalities for the patient using nursing judgment and critical thinking.
  • Recognize when to call the Rapid Response Team.
