The Emergency Surgical Skills Course is an essential course for clinicians working in acute clinical settings.

​

The skills you will learn can build upon Paramedical Training and reinforce the skills learnt on trauma courses.

 

You will be guided through the essential anatomy and physiology required to undertake clinical surgical interventions. 

 

Your practice facilitator will then provide the opportunity to apply clinical theory to clinical practice with practical skills stations and scenarios.
