The Advanced Regional and Pain Management Course (ARPMC) is a module based learning package currently available on Workday.
The topics covered in the course include pain education, epidural assessment and management, regional analgesia assessment and management, Patient Controlled Analgesia, ketamine, nausea and vomiting management.
Ideally, any nurse caring for a patient that requires one of the above analgesic strategies should complete this course.
In particular, only those nurses that have completed the course and the practical component are accredited to give an epidural bolus as per the current hospital policy.
Once you have registered and paid via Trybooking you will receive an email with information in the following week on how to access the course. You can register in any of the dates available and will have 6 months to complete the course.
In order for participants to become accredited all four modules must be completed. Participants must receive a 100% pass rate in order to proceed to the next module. Upon completion of all modules, participants are then required to make an appointment with an Acute Pain Service Nurse on Pager 1173 for the practical component.
Once the online modules and practical components are complete participants will be fully ARPM accredited.
