Introductory training
An introductory training session was designed for delivery by the EDDIE + nurse educator either face to face or online. Introductory training for PCWs covered the signs and symptoms of each of the eight areas of deterioration, along with communication tools to support the reporting of potential deterioration. Introductory training for nurses covered more in-depth clinical assessment and care options, as well as communication tools for them to report to other clinicians and close the feedback loop with PCWs.
