Course summary

Expand your experience of paediatric clinical skills such as thoracic drain removal, renal replacement therapy and critical care transport, while acquiring the underpinning theory. Our PGCert in Paediatric Critical Care, delivered at Alder Hey’s Institute in the Park, will be key to your professional development and progression to senior nursing roles in this vital area, as you continue to practice as you learn.

Key recommendations from NHS England state the importance of children being cared for within Paediatric Critical Care (PCC) by specialists in the care of critically ill children. The PGCert in Paediatric Critical Care will provide you with a solid foundation for all the major elements of contemporary Level 3 PCC, as defined by the Paediatric Critical Care Society.

You’ll receive a detailed understanding of the complex issues underpinning best practice in the delivery of contemporary care within the paediatric intensive care setting. You’ll then build on this, focusing on enhancing the expertise required to move from a position of basic effectiveness within your clinical team to a position of refined functioning within the speciality.

Our blended learning approach will provide flexibility and variety. Face to face and virtual teaching from experienced clinicians, case studies, simulation, and hands-on clinical experience of real life paediatric critical illness scenarios will enhance both your clinical skills and patient safety.
