“I have enjoyed learning to appreciate the communication process better. It has made me more aware of how I am communicating with my patients and staff members.”
“Documentation – I did not realise I was so bad, and now I try and implement what I’ve learnt in my everyday reports. Just a general over all refresher, as it has been a long time since I studied.”
“Once I first submitted my online discussion in regards to our first assignment, I enjoyed being able to discuss issues most of us come across in our workplace. It was like being in a classroom discussion. It was great to hear everyone’s past experiences.”
“Through the course, I have gain in detail a lot about tools that can help me do my job to a high standard and a better understanding of why we do things. I have become more aware of emergency assessments and general assessments of patients on first presentation. I have enjoyed testing my knowledge with the topic MCQ.”
“The course was fantastic. It should be compulsory for any nurse that undertakes employment within the Emergency Department. I look forward to undertaking other courses offered by the Australian College of Nursing.”
“I am new to computer learning but l enjoy the learning, challenges, researching the internet and books.”
“As this course was delivered entirely online, I was able to study when I had time (whether I was on night shift, day shift etc). It allowed great flexibility.”
“Excellent course. I have learnt so much and feel confident in triage and emergency presentations. I recommend this to anyone who wants to improve their clinical skills. Like anything, you have to be prepared to put the effort in to get the best results for yourself. Thank you ACN.”
“Living remotely has its challenges. With no internet available at home, having to drive 100km to access internet and complete readings and assignments was stressful. But I am proud of what I have achieved in the course.”
“Even though I found everything daunting at first, then sat down and went through everything I found it got easier as I went. It certainly broadened my knowledge because I was made to think. It put me out of my comfort zone, but appreciated that it gave me more confidence in myself.”
