Overview

Learn how nurses can still provide quality care in uncertain times

Healthcare systems are going through unprecedented upheaval in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic – straining under the volume of patients, and struggling with a lack of key resources.

Although these challenges are new for high income countries, such issues are long-established in conflict zones and other humanitarian settings.

On this course, you’ll explore the issues involved for nurses working with low resources, and what you can learn from nurses in crisis zones.

You’ll discover how to lead during the COVID-19 pandemic, what palliative care currently looks like, and how we can work towards recovery.

This course is designed for nurses or other healthcare professionals working with COVID-19 patients, or wanting to learn more about how to provide quality care with limited resources in times of crisis.

    The principles the course covered extended far beyond the specific period discussed. This was created at the pandemic's beginning, so much of the information and discussion questions are outdated. However, it provided excellent insight into both the pandemic and practical nursing.
