Course Duration:1 day (6 Hours) Course Content:By the end of this course, participants should be able to:1. Explain how the respiratory system works2. List relevant upper airway and respiratory anatomy and physiology3. Outline health problems that impair function - referring to individual’s health care plans 4. Explain the indications and contraindications of tracheostomies, oxygen, nebulisers, cough assist, suction and non-invasive ventilation5. Explain the risks and benefits of tracheostomies, oxygen, nebulisers, cough assist, suction and non-invasive ventilation6. Describe the checks, safeguards and precautions required for the procedure and equipment 7. Outline the importance of following the individual prescription / health care plan8. List the monitoring and observation steps required 9. Explain the importance of "hand-over", communication and record keeping10. Outline emergencies and circumstances that would require urgent medical care and treatment from the emergency services 11. Practice tracheostomy care, oxygen administration, nebuliser administration, cough assist, suction and non-invasive ventilation utilising a range of delivery methods in simulation Course Objectives:1.
