STAN Course – Oct 25
Stabilisation and Transfer of the Acutely unwell Neonate
A high quality training course designed to teach, embed and simulate the theoretical understanding and practical skills needed for a safe and efficient neonatal transfer
STAN is a course specially developed to teach and embed the theoretical understanding and practical skills needed for a safe and efficient neonatal transfer. Through lectures, small group case-based tutorials, workshops and high definition simulation this course helps to build confidence for the new transport clinician and provide valuable CPD and networking opportunities to more experienced colleagues.
Launched in 2018, STAN has proven to be popular and places have always been in high demand, it is recommended to book early and secure your place.
STAN Course is suitable for:
- neonatal consultants and paediatric consultants with a neonatal interest
- Advanced Neonatal Nurse Practitioners (ANNPs) or international equivalent
- ST4+ paediatric and neonatal grid training post doctors, or international equivalent
- senior nurses with strong neonatal ITU experience
- experienced paramedics, nurses and doctors working for interfacility transport teams who take part in neonatal transport
This year we are planning to run STAN at London Biggin Hill Airport in their lovely training facility The Hub (https://bigginhillairport.com/careers/the-hub-skills-development/). This is part of transitioning ownership of STAN to STORKS – a brand new charity that’s been spearheaded by Burak and Claire Salgin with a team of trustees – we will be running education and training events, sponsoring research and academic studies, and we hope before too long running our own long-distance neonatal transfers.
