From Medical Errors to Acts of Terror: Elite Learning's New Guide Prepares Nurses for the Unthinkable

Elite Learning, a comprehensive online learning destination for licensed professionals, today announced the release of A Nurse's Guide to Navigating the Worst-Case Scenario, From Medical Errors to Acts of Terror. The free e-book features real-life events experienced by healthcare professionals to help prepare nurses for the realistic, extreme situations they may face while caring for patients.

"As a nursing professional, how do you anticipate and handle unforeseeable events? We want to help nurses prepare themselves mentally and emotionally for some of the worst-case scenarios they might face as a healthcare professional," said Jami Cooley, Director of Healthcare Marketing at Colibri Healthcare, the parent company of Elite Learning.

A Nurse's Guide to Navigating the Worst-Case Scenario walks nurses through five scenarios in order of increasing scope and severity, from individual mistakes with profound consequences to global health emergencies. For each scenario, the e-book provides a narrative followed by triage and treatment recommendations, containment and resilience responses, and community health and preventio strategies. It also recaps the short-, medium-, and long-term actions nurses should take to mitigate damage, protect patients, and safeguard their own physical and mental health.

Scenarios covered in the e-book include:

• A medication error with serious consequences
• A measles outbreak at a local school
• An active shooter at your healthcare facility
• A natural disaster that strikes your city
• The next pandemic

"We are committed to educating nurses in every way possible, and this is one more resource that we hope can shed light on difficult situations," continued Cooley. "Nurses already carry a heavy burden of responsibility, and we aim to provide them with the tools and strategies to face the unthinkable with grace, confidence, and professionalism."
