Description
Recognize the early warning symptoms of clinical worsening with confidence.
The most recent research to inform clinical management methods
Solutions to the most difficult problems recording a patient crisis
Secrets to detecting changes in patient condition early
Validate your assessment of signs and symptoms, as well as following actions, by utilizing real-life patient crisis situations.
Extra content: Rapid Reaction Cards for Quick ReferenceYou enter your patient’s room. There is a horrible sensation that something is wrong. Do you disregard your internal radar? OR… do you follow your instincts and begin your investigation? Recognizing early indications and symptoms of anything wrong is your strongest legal defense and therapeutic reaction to preventing a terrible outcome for your patient. The better you understand how and why the body reacts to “things not working properly,” the sooner you may intervene and potentially avoid the development to an unpleasant conclusion, which may include death. Yes! Patients have perished due to a failure to rescue despite evident indicators and symptoms in the medical record.
This two-day intensive educational event will offer a variety of clinical scenarios representing all bodily systems that can and have resulted in bad outcomes because the signs and symptoms were not identified or treated effectively. You will also learn how to chart when something goes wrong with your patient from a documentation specialist. Documentation is equally as critical as the care you deliver, and you will learn how to accomplish both.
