Quality and Safety in Anaesthesia: Challenging your Standards
Our March Meeting and Workshops will again be at Melbourne Connect, an innovation precinct located in the heart of Carlton, adjacent to the University of Melbourne’s Parkville campus. We have put together an afternoon that will be both stimulating and productive in terms of meeting many of the specific requirements of the ANZCA CPD program.
Location, Melbourne Connect, 700 Swanston St, Carlton, Victoria, Australia
Date: Friday, March 13th
Time: Registration from 12.30pm
The main lecture session includes a panel discussion with audience participation that meets the criteria for Practice Evaluation (Measuring Outcomes). Registrants will be provided with a series of questions about their own practice ahead of time, and this will form the basis of a panel discussion that will form the second half of this session.
Following afternoon tea, registrants will do an Emergency Response activity (CICO or cardiac arrest) and, for the first time at our event, an Indigenous Cultural Awareness session. The Cultural Awareness session is being delivered by Wurundjeri Cultural and Education Services, and has been designed specifically to be of interest to doctors practicing in Melbourne. In this way, many of your ANZCA CPD requirements can be met in a single afternoon.
In addition, we are excited to be partnering with the Gastricus team to offer an optional add-on boutique workshop on gastric ultrasound. This will take place at the same location from 08:00, making it an all-day meeting for those who participate. Further details about the content and structure of this workshop are available at www.gastricus.org. We expect this session to be extremely popular and places are limited to the first 20 who register.
During the meeting there will be a gourmet afternoon tea, and time to mingle with colleagues and visit the trade displays. There will be drinks and nibbles from 7pm.
