14 Jun Complete your online Deteriorating Patient Training by 30 June
For all clinicians, your Deteriorating Patient Training ensures you have the skills and confidence to accurately recognise acute clinical deterioration and provide an appropriate and timely response.
Remember, Deteriorating Patient Training is a requirement for all patient-facing employees.
The good news is that until June 30 2022, completion of the online component of your deteriorating patient training (excluding neonatal courses) will be considered as full completion of the course.
How do I access the training?
Log in to Latte and the training module will appear on your homepage/dashboard. If not, search for ‘deteriorating patient’ in ‘Find Learning’, and open the deteriorating patient training specific to your area or speciality:
- Adult Basic Life Support
- Paediatric Basic Life Support
- Adult Advanced Life Support
- Paediatric Advanced Life Support
- Neonatal First Response
- Neonatal Advanced Resus
If prompted, remember to hit the ‘Reset Completion’ button before you complete the course, and feel free to pause and return to your course if you need. Latte can be accessed on-site or remotely via your computer, tablet or mobile device.
Do I need to complete face-to-face training too?
Face-to-face training will return in the second half of the year, but for now, completing the online components of your deteriorating patient training is all that is required.
Please note: A face-to-face practical session is still available for:
- Neonatal training
- Some new employees and postgraduate or local program students
How do I record that I have completed my training?
Once you pass the quiz, Latte will automatically log your completion. You can view this in your learning record on Latte or via the BI dashboard.
Why is Deteriorating Patient Training important?
Deteriorating Patient Training enhances your skills and confidence in accurately recognising acute clinical deterioration and providing an appropriate and timely response.
It is a requirement for our clinical patient facing workforce, including all nurses, midwives, doctors, and allied health, radiography, pharmacy, psychology and community services employees.
Ensuring you remain up to date with all mandatory and targeted training also ensures you are always Accreditation-ready.
