Provider Skills and Procedures Workshop - In-person Training

September 25, 2020

OVERVIEW

Learn new procedures, build essential skills, and gain confidence in your clinical practice.

You will be taught a wide variety of common procedures by skilled advanced practice providers in a supported environment. Online programming delivers traditional lectures and case-based discussion, for ambulatory, acute care, and telehealth settings. In-person training complements the online program, giving you the opportunity to practice skills hands-on in a simulation lab under the guidance of an experienced clinician.

Choose programs individually or combine them for an intensive skill-building immersion. Customize each to include skills and procedures relevant to your experience level and practice setting.

PRACTICE GAPS AND NEEDS

After initial education and training, the transition-to-practice gap for advance practice providers (APPs) include a variety of procedures commonly needed by patients. Traditionally, APPs need to rely on finding a provider who has privileges in their specialty to teach them new skills. Even when an expert provider is available, learning opportunities are limited by busy clinic schedules, coordinating clinic days, the procedures that patients need, and/or having the resources and time to attend a regional or national conference where these skills are taught.

Some experienced providers may lack confidence in performing specific procedures they haven't recently performed and need to refresh their knowledge and skills.

Not being able to provide procedures at the time a patient requires intervention limits access, creates barriers, and could lead to delay in patient care. Providers need access to adequate training to offer these procedures.

This workshop meets the need for further hands-on training for commonly performed procedures, in an accessible on-line and in-persona format.

ELEMENTS OF COMPETENCE

This CE activity has been designed to change learner competence and performance and focuses on the American Board of Medical Specialties' areas of patient care and procedural skills, practice based learning and improvement, medical knowledge, the Institute of Medicine areas of patient-centered care and evidence based medicine, and the Interprofessional and Nursing areas of  roles/responsibilities, interprofessional communication, and teams/teamwork.

Intended Audience

This workshop is intended for advance practice registered nurses, physician assistants, and physicians in ambulatory and/or acute care settings.

Learning Objectives

By the end of the workshop learners will be able to:

  1. Identify indications and contraindications for commonly performed office and bedside procedures
  2. Explain current interventions and tools for treatment of specified conditions/diseases/screening
