The Fundamental Critical Care Support (FCCS) course is a comprehensive multi-disciplinary course addressing essential management principles for critically ill patients. This advanced course targets experienced critical care nurses, respiratory therapists and non-intensivist trained physicians who identify, stabilize and treat critically ill patients. (This is not an introduction to critical care course).

ONLINE Portion : Education will involve an online hosted course that uses Society of Critical Care Medicine's (SCCM) state-of-the-art learning management system and participants complete the lecture portion of the course over a few weeks at a self-paced approach. Participants who successfully complete the online licensed course and corresponding posttests will receive a certificate of completion from SCCM. The online didactic material is started prior to the in-person portion.

IN-PERSON Portion : There will be a skill station / simulation portion on Friday, June 26th, from 07:45AM-4:00PM at the University of Colorado Hospital Simulation Center in Anschutz Outpatient Pavilion, Rooms 2005/2006. The in-person portion encourages communication, teamwork, and builds collaboration among attendees. This simulation has a limited participation capacity. After completion of the course, participants will be able to provide higher quality and more effective care to hospitalized critically ill patients.

Learning Outcome Statement : Increased familiarity with practice demonstrated in simulation activities, online didactic application and small group scenarios. Communication strategies and simulated clinical scenarios allow for reflection and feedback in real time.
