About this course

This brand new series of online lectures and discussions is aimed at nurses working in hospitals and clinics responsible for managing cardiac cases and feeding myopathy and grass sickness cases. Over three evening sessions, you will learn how to identify abnormal heart rhythms and murmurs, how to set up and monitor ECGs, plan feeding regimes and set up and monitor intravenous treatment.

Whilst the sessions will be recorded, we strongly recommend that you attend all three sessions in person so you can get involved in the discussions. In order to complete the course you must have attended or watched back all three sessions.

The first session will run on 7 January, the second on 29 January, and the third on 19 February.
