About Us
The Southeastern Critical Care Summit began in the early 2000’s at Emory University as a multi-professional quality improvement meeting across the growing critical care system. The Summit is an annual symposium that provides targeted education for common critical care conditions and procedures to multi-professional healthcare stakeholders. This program uses interactive and case-based lectures from stakeholders at all levels (physicians, advanced practice providers, pharmacy, nursing, respiratory therapy, administration and more), as well as hands-on teaching in breakout sessions. Topics of particular importance (i.e. prevalence in critical care) or controversy will involve roundtable discussion with stakeholders and/or break-out sessions; these topics will also be utilized for small-group discussions, teaching and procedural education. At the conclusion of this program, the participant will be able to:
- Accurately describe and summarize the most recent evidence based medical care guidelines and practice standards for common critical care conditions.
- Describe recent therapeutic advances in the field of critical care medicine which may directly impact optimal patient-centered care.
- Develop strategies to standardize and harmonize the application of evidence across the spectrum of critical care providers and clinical conditions.
- Use methods and implementation strategies that can be applied in your institution to ensure the application of patient-centered care according to evidence-based guidelines.
- Apply practical hands-on education in the management of common critical conditions and the conduct of common critical care procedures.
