- Acute Care of at-Risk Newborns (ACoRN)
ACoRN is a Canadian neonatal stabilization program, which provides a systematic approach to the identification and management of babies requiring stabilization. It serves as the foundation for an educational program that aims to teach the concepts and basic skills of neonatal stabilization and where necessary, preparation for transport to a referral facility. The ACoRN process applies to babies, post delivery room resuscitation, who need assistance in the transition from fetal life, and babies who become unwell or are at risk of becoming unwell in the first few hours after birth. Click on the link below for more information and registration form for upcoming workshops.
ACoRN workshops:
Due to the planned program transfer of perinatal services to LHSC, there will be no ACoRN workshop in 2011. It is anticipated that an ACoRN workshop will be planned for June 2012. Watch this spot for further updates.
ACoRN Materials can be ordered through the Perinatal Outreach Program. Click here for ACoRN materials order form. - NRP Instructor Course:
