BASIC Provider & Instructor Courses
BASIC Provider Course
The BASIC course is primarily designed as an introduction to Intensive Care for doctors coming to work in the ICU for the first time, but has also proved popular with critical care nurses, Emergency department doctors and other doctors who have responsibility for severely ill patients.
The course is run over two days and consists of brief clinically-based lectures, small group skill stations, e-learning and pre- and post-course tests. A course manual will also be provided. It covers essential and fundamental aspects of Intensive Care, including: airway management, CPR, acute respiratory failure, mechanical ventilation, hemodynamic monitoring, diagnosis and management of shock, trauma, and severe sepsis, transport of the critically ill and acid base disturbances.
Participants are expected to read the course manual and have completed the online pre-course MCQ test prior to attending the course.
Lunch and refreshments are provided during the course, as well as, a course dinner at one of Bendigo's finest eateries.
Participants are strictly limited to 24 (12 medical, 12 nursing)

Due to the threat of COVID19, unfortunately, we will not be running any BASIC courses in 2020 as our resources have been diverted to preparing and managing this. We hope to be up and going for 2021, with dates to be released mid-next year.

BASIC Instructor Course
Bendigo Health ICU held its inaugural BASIC Instructor course this year, and has plans to host one each year. This course is for doctors who want to develop their skills as instructors for the BASIC course. The course will cover fundamental adult learning theory, instructor and feedback-giving pearls, and information to guide delivery of the BASIC course content. There is also a course dinner at one of Bendigo's great eateries!
Instructor candidates are required to attend all three days of the course which encompasses delivering lectures and skill stations at the Bendigo BASIC provider course on the second and third days of the course. If this interests you, reserve your spot early as numbers are strictly limited.
