Today, the Eker Group company that gave you the
EpiShuttle, launched an eLearning platform to build knowledge, skills, and
confidence on safe isolation and transport of infectious and contaminated
patients. -
Ensuring the safety of healthcare professionals is at the core of everything
we do. That’s why we have committed to training solutions and designed a
training that goes far beyond traditional product information, Ellen Cathrine
Andersen, CEO of EpiGuard said. EpiGuard
has a systematic approach that includes patient case discussions, live
exercises, individual learning, hands-on experience, and sharing of best
practices. The Platform EpiTraininghelps improve both
patient outcomes and worker safety. From professionals to professionals The
platform, like the EpiShuttle, builds on firsthand experience. Professionals
who deal with diseases like Ebola, Covid, Mokeypox and Lassa fever as well as
CBRNe contaminations share their cumulative knowledge and experience. EpiTraining
provides deep insight into the risks involved when transporting an infectious
patient and teach the student how to reduce these risks and ensure safety.
After completing the course, the student will be better prepared to plan and
handle safe isolation and transport, whether infectious or vulnerable
patients, inside the EpiShuttle in the most efficient way. They will be
better prepared for emergency situations and more confident in using the
EpiShuttle system to protect healthcare workers and society. Trainers
also cover a wide range of topics from medical considerations during
transport, safely securing the EpiShuttle, and decontamination procedures. - Our
team has developed a user experience that makes it far easier to implement
EpiShuttles to any facility or organization. Users and other healthcare
professionals who may interact with the EpiShuttle to get the information
they need, when they need it, on the device that they prefer. All course
modules are written by experts in patient transport, and include quick
quizzes, interactive tools, and extra sources to maximize the user
experience. Users can participate in the training anytime, anywhere, and at
their own pace, Andersen explained. Pandemic paved way for eLearning Four
years ago, EpiGuard began offering a two-day live training workshop on-site
of customers’ operations. The workshops are still ongoing and are led by
highly skilled paramedics with many years of practical experience. During
the pandemic, however, live training workshops were impossible. - We
were quick to invest in a video conferencing system and started giving out
the same training workshops virtually. WE had positive feedback and saved
valuable time on travel. Even so, it was difficult to recreate the hands-on
learning experience you get in physical workshops. At the same time, our
experience was there were several elements from the onsite trainings that
were in fact very well suited to online learning, Andersen said. |
