PICU Education

Our PICU doesn't follow a formal education program at all, but I wish we did. I suggested ECCO to my patient care manager and was essentially blown off. (Maybe if it was free she'd have been more receptive...)

When I worked in Manitoba the Health Sciences Centre there had a neonatal and pediatric critical care course that was very popular and turned out good practitioners. I never took the course but I precepted several of the students. I believe it's still in existence, although it may have a new name. Have a look here for some information on it: (page 2, right hand side of the page) http://www.hsc.mb.ca/nursing/content...une%202008.pdf

I can PM you some contact info if you want.
