Intended audience: All clinical staff

Duration: 60 minutes

Course expert: Joanne Shirtcliffe

This course is open to all and is designed to be:

• An acute care training tool for real ward based clinical scenarios.
• A prerequisite to the ACT simulation study day.
• A tool to reflect on your own acute care skills and where training or review is needed.

It is our aspiration that in completing the ACT eLearning course, you will be able to:

• Revise basic acute physiology.
• Practice, and build confidence with simple frameworks of care for the acutely deteriorating patient.
• Translate the ABCDE and ISBAR approach to your own daily practice on the wards.

Our expectation is that you:

• complete the e-learning module prior to attending the ACT course.
