MedLern, a leading digital learning solution for hospitals and healthcare professionals, has unveiled an innovative, online resuscitation training platform that does not require instructor oversight. Yenepoya (Deemed to be University), Mangalore is the first university in India to adopt this program for training their medical practitioners in BLS, ACLS and PALS. The globally proven, online programme, HeartCode Complete is co-developed and powered by American Heart Association (Association) science and Laerdal Medical technology.
The programme significantly reduces training time as compared to the traditional instructor-led model. The programme is divided into two parts – online, self-paced Cognitive Part 1 and Skills Session on the RQI-P GO Simulation Station. Upon completing both parts, the learner receives an American Heart Association course completion e-Card. RQI-P GO Simulation Stations are portable and can be used by hospitals to train their staff on BLS/ACLS/PALS on their hospital premises rather than them travelling to training centres in different locations. The programme provides consistent training that meets diverse learning needs and features real-time, audio-visual feedback. The programme accommodates the learning style and needs of the learners and they can complete the eLearning portion at their own pace and on their schedule.
The innovative program will improve staff productivity and deliver better patient outcomes. The programme will also reduce the operational cost of physical training and optimise time and resources while delivering high-quality resuscitation training.
