The Oxylog ventilator ​ This video is brilliant- I have used this in many 3am resus teaching session and although the voice starts of a bit low- its witty and informative and I actually learn something new about the oxylog every-time I watch it! Remember if you are working in resus often you will be expected to know how this works- this video does that. Enjoy!  RCN Competency codes; CD2 6.1.3 (L1) CD2 6.1.8 (L1) )  6.1.9 (L2)  CD2 6.1.3 (L2)

Non invasive ventilation- CPAP and BIPAP ​ Confession time- This is one of my bug-bears that we don't teach this in house as routinely as we possibly did in the past- Don't get me wrong I understand that these patients will often require a higher level of care and the specialists need to be involved early, nevertheless guess what the RCN competency document says...  CD2.6a – The patient requiring non-Invasive ventilation (NIV) – Level 2 
Plastering and splinting in the ED by EM3 #Legends ​ This is the bread and butter of ED nursing, being able to undertake treatments to get the patient home after their clinical assessment. I often hear and see 'I cant plaster' or worse there are no nurses to do treatments and barely enough to triage/assess the patients coming through the door. Make sure you are ahead of the game and able to undertake a range of splintage in ED from minor injury splints to resus splints so the following videos will cover a range of plastering to pelvic and femur splintage. Thanks again to @EM3FOAMed  ​ ​​
