Hospitalist and Emergency Procedures Course (Nov 16 - 17, 2024)

Hospitalist and Emergency Procedures Course is organized by Hospital Procedures Consultants (HPC) and will be held from Nov 16 - 17, 2024 at Courtyard by Marriott San Antonio Riverwalk, San Antonio, Texas, United States of America.

Description:
All students will gain online access to our 23 lecture modules. These modules cover a range of didactic material, including lectures and procedural videos in the Hospitalist and Emergency Procedures course. Before your scheduled hands-on skills lab session, it is imperative to complete these modules. This approach allows you the flexibility to complete the theoretical components of our course at your convenience, from any location. Moreover, you will have the privilege of reviewing the lectures and full-length procedural videos as many times as you wish for an entire year.

Once you’ve finished the instructional modules, you’ll participate in an intensive hands-on procedural training session spanning 10 hours per day. This session will focus on simulation-driven training for ALL the hospital procedures covered. This weekend of practical training is entirely centred on 100% hands-on procedural skills training within a group ratio of six students to one procedural expert instructor (6:1). You’ll benefit from tailored and immersive instruction in:
