Start4neo is a national teaching and learning programme initiated by the Swiss Society of Neonatology and is aimed at all professional groups involved in the care of newborns in the delivery room. The "Basic Skills Course" is designed to provide all participants with basic knowledge and confidence in the fundamental skills of neonatal care and resuscitation.
We are pleased to be able to offer you the certified Start4neo course at the University Children's Hospital Basel (UKBB).
After successfully completing the course, participants will be able to take adequate preparatory measures before the birth, anticipate risk factors for impaired primary adaptation, take the first stabilising steps, initiate cardiopulmonary resuscitation if necessary and develop situational awareness and be able to judge when to call for help.
