First Hour Care of the Term Newborn Infant
NHS Health Education England
Course Information
Why should I take this course?
This micro skills course from NHS Health Education England will discuss what happens to a newborn baby at birth and how interruption to the normal process of adaptation can cause problems for a newborn baby born at full term. It emphasises the importance of early recognition of risk to the baby and early actions to prevent further compromise, which may result in separation of the mother and baby and avoidable medical problems for the baby. We will focus on what happens within the first hour of a baby's life, as good clinical care of both mother and baby at this early stage can make a real difference to outcome.
Are the programs accredited for continuous professional development (CPD) or continuing medical education (CME)?
Our courses have been developed and are delivered by Talisium's global network of content providers including universities and various professional bodies whose work underpins CPD for healthcare professionals.
Certificates of completion will be available and can be downloaded once a course has been completed. These can be used as evidence of learning for training and CPD purposes. You will need to check with your governing body about CPD standards and requirements.
Unless otherwise stated, certificates issued through Talisium are not qualifications of any formal assessment.
Do I need any prior qualifications or experience?
