Putting together some resources for new anaesthetists… what non-clinical, practical skills/advice do you wish you were given as a new fellow? 🙏 @ANZCA@ASA_Australia
@hypoxicchicken Emergency bell for OT and PACU could not be heard inside the operating theatres (only in the hallways). Which led to a large presence of non-anaesthetists at red bell events.
@scruff888 In the same position, Scott. So if just one of our patients is an asymptomatic carrier for nasal or shared airway surgery it seems most of the staff will be exposed and infected? It's a difficult conversation but seems a no brainer?
@snouzin PPE and GA of COVID-19 sim training since Monday at RHH. Intubation/extubation sim training today. All electives apart from Cat 0/1 cancelled and 2 theatres dedicated to Sim/covid so far. Simulation training is key. Sadly I think we’re still 2 weeks behind. #cancelelectivesurgery
@josinclanz@jackdmadden@traceymtay @PraniPranola @ANZCA@ASA_Australia@nzsa @EverymindAU The #LLHW toolkit lets us tailor the strategies to our individual workplaces. It has heaps of resources. It can be a bit daunting so I presented a roadmap for how to navigate it. The toolkit can be found here: https://t.co/MkPodjrMfd
@traceymtay@ANZCA@ASA_Australia Totally agree @traceymtay. Clinical supervision seems to be a term used widely in NZ by anaesthetists. We don’t seem to have the same approach.
@traceymtay@jackdmadden@ANZCA@ASA_Australia 100% agree. We are looking at models for how to feasibly do this in non psych specialties. Like mentoring, this process will need skill & practice on part of trainee & “supervisor”. If anyone had any experience with this would love to hear from you! @StanfordWellMD@MayoClinic
