Program Description
This online course provides specialized training in newborn resuscitation and neonatal transition support for healthcare personnel caring for infants. Designed for midwives, maternity support workers, nurses, doctors, and healthcare assistants, the curriculum ensures staff remain fully compliant with national clinical guidelines and the Skills for Health Core Skills Training Framework.
The curriculum explores critical responsibilities during neonatal emergencies, focusing on the identification of respiratory distress and early clinical deterioration immediately after birth. Instruction emphasizes optimal temperature management techniques, airway maintenance protocols, effective ventilatory support, and the safe administration of chest compressions tailored specifically to neonates.
Training is delivered through an interactive, WCAG 2.2-accessible digital platform featuring video demonstrations, animated sequences, case scenarios, and ongoing knowledge checks. Participants may utilize an upfront self-assessment tool to benchmark existing knowledge before proceeding to a final multiple-choice examination, which awards an accredited CPD certificate upon achieving an 80 percent passing score.
