Thoughtful and comprehensive content

My favorite point the presenter made was that multiple layers of screening are to be avoided. Intuitively, re-screenings seem worthwhile because we expect the false positive rate to decrease, but as she points out the false negative rate will also increase. It’s better to proceed with diagnostic testing once the baby fails a screening to keep the false negative rate as close to zero as possible. She didn’t specifically address re-screens while the baby is still at the hospital, but I’m assuming she would endorse those, and they seem to be standard practice.

Excellent Workshop

What I liked best about the RetCam Workshop was the incredible variety of strategies that are modeled, the community that developed with all members, and the incredible learning process of working through various clinical cases. It was an amazing learning experience

Great Experience

This workshop was absolutely wonderful. The content is right. This is most definitely the best workshop I have ever participated in.

Great Solution

The online courses from VCA offered me a program that was flexible and convenient for my schedule and for my entire team

A new innovation

This new innovation gives all neonatal health care professionals instant access to evidence based practice and education at a time when it is extremely difficult for nurses to secure funding and time to attend outside study sessions. With the requirements of the NMC for professionals to maintain their education and clinical skills the Neonatal Care Academy also provides accreditation and opportunities to progress academically which I welcome as I am sure colleagues will agree with me.
