Sickle Cell Disease Nursing Excellence Train-the-Trainer Bootcamp in Memphis
This initiative will be an opportunity offered for nurses to learn the care of sickle cell patients in an academic setting with instructors who are education, sickle cell disease and research experts.
Sickle cell disease is one of the most common hematologic disorders and is prevalent in the Mid-South, but education and resources are severely lacking for providers who care for patients living with the disorder. This 5 day bootcamp will provide robust training on sickle cell disease and will prepare you to train others on the disease.
Target Audience
Registered Nurses, Social Workers, Nurse Educators
Learning Objectives
- Identify signs and symptoms of sickle cell emergencies and the appropriate interventions.
- Demonstrate understanding of nursing management of sickle cell complications, including pain, acute chest syndrome, stroke, and renal disease.
- Describe health disparities in patients with sickle cell disease.
- Explain appropriate interventions to promote mental health in patients with sickle cell disease.
- Identify medical and procedural therapies for patients with sickle cell disease and the nursing implications.
