Learning objectives

This course will improve your ability to respond to paediatric medical emergencies in alignment with the Rural Generalist Core Curriculum Domain 4:  Respond to Medical Emergencies: hospital & prehospital, resource organisation, initial assessment and triage, emergency medical intervention and patient evacuation.
Assessment information

There are two assessment components that you must successfully complete to meet the requirements of the course. The assessment components are:

  • Successful completion of the pre-course Multiple Choice Question (MCQ) Assessment, with a pass mark of 80%.
  • Successful completion of the Guided Competency Validation during the 2-day face-to-face workshop.

A Guided Competency Validation (GCV) of your skills is completed during the face-to-face workshop and provides you with the opportunity to demonstrate Emergency Paediatric skills with the support and assistance of your colleagues, as you would in the clinical environment. You will get multiple opportunities to practice and demonstrate these skills in a supportive and friendly environment.  So you know what to expect, you can view the assessment criteria for the GCV in the online course. 

Additional information

It is mandatory that participants complete the self-directed online learning program (inclusive of MCQs) prior to attending the workshop. 

Participants must be present for the entire duration of the course (8 a.m. to 5 p.m day 1, 9am to 3pm day 2 local time). Therefore, it is highly recommended that interstate travellers arrive at the course location at least one day before the commencement of the course. 

If, for any reason, a participant arrives after the course has commenced or departs before the end of the course, they will be ineligible to receive a Certificate of Attendance or the allocated CPD hours. The participant will be required to re-book which will incur additional charges.
