0914_SHU_Critical Care Concepts_Live- Cohort 26.07
Description:
This course is designed to support nurses progressing toward clinical competency in critical care settings. The curriculum emphasizes advanced knowledge and skills, including ABG interpretation, ventilator management and troubleshooting, RSI and airway management, EKG and 12-lead analysis for acute coronary syndromes, hemodynamic assessment and vasoactive drip titration, and evidence-based interventions for deteriorating respiratory and cardiovascular patients, while reinforcing teamwork, communication, and role clarity for nurses caring for critically ill patients.
