To strengthen clinical readiness ahead of hospital placement interviews, the Department of Medical-Surgical Nursing hosted a two-day Critical Care & Basic Life Support (BLS) Simulation Workshop in the campus Nursing Skills Lab.

Practical Stations Covered

Working in small rotating teams, final-year students practiced rapid assessment and team communication across five OSCE-style stations:

  1. Airway Management & High-Quality CPR Protocols on adult and paediatric trainers.
  2. ECG Lead Placement & Arrhythmia Recognition for emergency ward monitoring.
  3. IV Infusion Pump Safety & High-Alert Medication Verification to prevent dosing errors.
  4. Sepsis Bundle & Central Line Care following strict aseptic technique.
  5. SBAR Handover Communication for clear escalation to attending physicians.

Hands-on simulation ensures students enter multi-specialty hospital ICUs with steady judgement and safe clinical habits.
