Event details
This ASCEND (acquiring skills, career exploration, networking and development) webinar aims to help students and newly qualified practitioners to develop the practical and personal skills needed to succeed during the early years of their perioperative career. It will focus on two main skills - leadership and the management of anaesthetic emergencies.
Leadership is often mistaken for something that only comes with vast experience in a particular discipline. We will be re-examining ‘what is leadership?’ and introducing some leadership opportunities available early in your perioperative career.
Management of anaesthetic emergencies is a crucial part of perioperative care. This is not only relevant for anaesthetic practitioners, it incorporates the whole theatre team. Being able to identify an anaesthetic emergency is a valuable skill in your early career.
Learning outcomes:
- An introduction into leadership opportunities available early in your perioperative career.
- Understand different styles of leadership and how you can deploy them in your everyday practice.
- Identifying anaesthetic emergencies and learning through virtual simulation.
