Fundamental Clinical Assessment Skills for Registered Nurses
in Care Homes
Expertly designed and presented clinical courses.
This course is available for groups of Registered Nurses VIRTUALLY or ONSITE (duration 7 hours).
This course aims to equip Registered Nurses (RN) with the knowledge and skills to effectively assess and triage patients in order to make informed decisions as to whether patients require hospital admission or a GP visit. This course is suitable for RN working in Nursing Homes, Care Homes, Out-of-Hours Centres and Walk-in-Centres. We include our own patient assessment tool based on NEWS 2 scoring which is now ratified & used in primary care. We can also include the verification of expected death within the course content if desired.
Prices reflect number of attendees, course equipment/materials needed, travel and accommodation as required. Please contact us for more information.
