A variety of workshops will be offered to delegates to book closer to the event. A summary of topics is noted below.

Thursday 13 May

WORKSHOP 1: Continuous Renal Replacement Therapy 
Presented by Baxter 

A session covering the setup and use of the PrisMax2 monitor. We’ll explore the features that assist with operational simplicity; increase efficiencies and expand treatment possibilities.

WORKSHOP 2: Tracheostomy Workshop

Presented by Margaret Nicholson 

Challenged by tracheostomy care? Come along and refresh your knowledge and skills. 

  • You are looking after a patient with a tracheostomy and you can’t pass the suction catheter - what is happening? 
  • The tracheostomy site is bleeding or blood is coming out of the tube - what do you do?

Join us to review upper airway A&P and emergency algorithms.  Practice easy to follow steps in a fun and safe environment where you will learn the basic equipment you need to support the patient.

WORKSHOP 3: Resilience, Wellbeing and Empathy in Times of Change
Presented by Samantha Jakimowicz

Dr Jakimowicz will be facilitating this interactive workshop that introduces participants to a number of different interventions to build empathy, wellbeing and resilience. Evidence-based programs such as Schwartz Rounds™ and Empathy Circles will be experienced as a means of ameliorating distress arising from traumatic patient care situations and increased workload amongst healthcare professionals. This workshop provides a space where healthcare staff can discuss social and emotional aspects of caring for others in a safe and structured forum.
