(Respiratory Care Nursing Procedures) | INTRODUCTION:
Nursing procedures are constantly changing this is due to never ending discoveries in best-practice health care methods. As nurses we want to ensure that our knowledge and skills in nursing procedures are always updated. We can read a lot of them and have the knowledge but it is different if we have the developed a certain level of skill acquisition, particularly in this time of new technology. For this reason, CCNAPI is offering a course focusing on common nursing procedures. | COURSE DESCRIPTION:
With the rapid advancement of nursing practice and massive use of highly technical machines, the nursing profession continues to keep pace with a market of a driven health care system that requires increasingly complex nursing care. These procedures are most common to patients with respiratory problems. More so, nurses must able to be familiar with these procedures to be able to cope up with the diverse needs of its patients with respiratory needs. This 3 day program with lecture and workshop will be done to enhance nurses knowledge and skill as they care for patients with respiratory problems. | COURSE DESCRIPTION:
This is a two-day workshop for nurses that will allow skill development on the common nursing procedures through hands-on opportunity guided by preceptors in a simulated environment. The focus of this course is basic procedures that nurses often perform in their daily duties. | OBJECTIVES:
1. Discuss respiratory physiology, breathing mechanics and normal and abnormal lung sounds.
2. Identify the principles behind the effective use of airway adjuncts and mechanical ventilation.
3. Airway and breathing management.
4. Interpret arterial blood gas results.
5. Formulate nursing care plans for patients with respiratory problem and with mechanical ventilation.
6. Demonstrate skills in performing these common respiratory nursing procedures: - Open and Closed Suctioning

After the course, the participants will be able to:
1. Discuss an overview of the conceptual foundation of critical care nursing: - Scope of critical care nursing practice
- Use of the nursing process
- Critical care environment
2. Describe the phenomena of concern in critical care nursing: - Breathing, Tissue perfusion and gas exchange
- Cardiac electrical activity
- Regulation of fluid and electrolyte balance
- Pain
- Nutrition
3. Identify patient care problems through appropriate assessment in relation to the: - Cardiovascular system
- Pulmonary system
- Neurologic system
- Renal system
- Multisystem
4. Demonstrate basic skills in utilizing the following: - Hemodynamic monitoring
- Mechanical ventilation
- Neurological assessment tools
- Cardiovascular drug support formulas and dosages
5. Formulate a comprehensive plan of care for the critically-ill adult and pediatric patient. INTENDED PARTICIPANTS:
Any experienced or inexperienced registered nurses (RNs) desiring to understand the challenges of critical care nursing and wishing to expand her knowledge in the care of the hemodynamically-compromised patient. However, it is preferred that participants have already attended an ECG course. CPE Credit Units (CUs):

The course is designed for nurses who participate in the resuscitation of a patient, whether in or out of the hospital. Through this course, the nurses will enhance their skills in assisting during the treatment of the adult victim of a cardiac arrest or other cardiopulmonary emergencies. This course on the ACLS: The ABCD of resuscitation will emphasize the importance of basic life support – CPR to patient survival; the integration of effective basic life support with advanced cardiovascular life support interventions; and the importance of effective team interaction and communication during resuscitation. This ACLS course is American Heart Association (AHA) – aligned program and will apply simulated clinical scenarios that encourage active; hands-on participation through various learning stations. This methodology will provide the participants with more practice sessions that is essential in building skills individually, as part of a team, and as team leader. OBJECTIVES:
