Core Skills for Clinical Pharmacists in Intensive Care
Summary
Dear participant,
Clinical pharmacists in the Intensive Care Unit (ICU) improve patient outcome including mortality, ICU length of stay and reducing adverse drug events.
Building on ESICM’s reputation of excellence in education, this face to face course for the clinical pharmacist will be delivered by multiple modes of education, including workshops, case-based discussions and small group learning. There will be a strong focus on problem solving skills and also on the evidence base that supports decision making in ICU.
An online support classroom has been created to support the preparation and communication with course participants before and after the course takes place.
The classroom will stay open for 3 months after the event.
Enjoy!
