Trauma education for Med-Surg and ICU?

[Jeffery Hammond]

We require all our ED nurses to have TNCC within 6 months of hire. I'm not
sure that would be applicable to the ICU however. Our ICU nurse orientation
is a home grown product. I am sure most trauma centers have developed these
internally.

Hi Justin,  I have been doing hospital wide education using a program called
Trauma Library Sessions.  I have completed the sessions several times and
have been looking for other educational offerings which could be taught to
nurses from  med-surg to ICU regarding trauma. I was wondering if you had
any suggestions.
