The Dignity Health website is moving to CommonSpirit.org to deliver a more patient-centered digital experience across CA, AZ, and NV.
A learning experience focused on emergent care of the neonate targeting clinicians who may encounter neonatal emergencies in practice such as Labor & Delivery, Postpartum and Emergency Department personnel. This class builds on the concepts learned in the S.T.A.B.L.E course and includes hands-on simulation and training with opportunities to practice skills such as IV insertion, emergent umbilical line set-up and assisting with infant intubation.
Simulation experiences fostering use of focused neonatal assessment and recognition of the compromised neonate as well as preparing a neonate for transfer to a higher level of care will be provided.
Highlights include education and training on appropriate use of oxygen and the T-piece during resuscitation, thermoregulation, neonatal medications, lab results and documentation standards.
The class will utilize the PSSAT (Pre-Transport, Stabilization, and Self-Assessment) tool and pre-stabilization checklist created by S.T.A.B.L.E. to reinforce S.T.A.B.L.E concepts in real time providing a safe place for clinicians to practice the critical thinking and skills needed to safely care for a compromised neonate.
At the conclusion of the program the learner will be able to:
A current S.T.A.B.L.E. provider card is highly recommended prior to this class.
