Exploring Experiences of Aeromedical Children’s Transport
Venue: Remote via Zoom
The course takes place via remote learning, on Monday evenings. EXACT is a short course aimed at competent neonatal and paediatric transport health professionals with some flight experience who want to develop this aspect of their role further. The course is designed around the principle of ‘communities of practice’, which are groups of people who share a concern or passion for something they do and learn how to do it better as they interact regularly. Over six evenings (via Zoom) candidates will, through a combination of knowledge acquisition and reflective practice, be able to describe and recognise safe, evidence-based care in this context and will be able to discuss, debate and manage the professional issues relating to children’s aeromedical transport.
