The broad approach of this health specialty makes it necessary to focus on the emergency department to treat severe poisoning. The main objective of this Practical Training is to provide healthcare personnel with experience in the correct development of toxicology assistance. All this in order to successfully address the professional challenge of caring for patients with urgent toxicological problems. The multidisciplinarity acquired by the specialist after completing this program is reflected, prominently, in his knowledge in the evaluation of the patient's condition

and the successful management of his treatment. 

TECH offers a Practical Training process in prestigious hospitals, so that specialists can develop clinical techniques in the real scenario. This practical period will consist of 3 weeks of intensive learning, integrating the latest technological tools. In addition, they will have the support and guidance of professionals who belong to the team of experts of the health centers throughout
the clinical training.

Therefore, throughout the proposed stay in this program, the graduate will become part of a team of professionals of the highest level, with whom they will work actively in the management of the different patients who come to their respective urgent consultations during this period. In this way, you will be able to update yourself not only on the most effective care strategies, but also to implement the most assertive and approachable communication skills in your practice. As a result, you will participate in a program that will bring you up to date with the most important scientific postulates and clinical advances. 

During the on-site stay at the reference center you will be supported by an assistant tutor, who will ensure that all the requirements for which this Practical Training has been designed are met. In this way, the nurse will work with total guarantee and safety in the handling of the most innovative clinical technology, as well as in the use of effective therapeutic techniques.

Teaching Objectives

This program has a comprehensive update on issues such as the main toxic agents in the environment, mechanisms to protect the severely intoxicated patient and those around their, as well as the process of care, diagnosis and treatment of the severely intoxicated patient in its full dimension. The clinical stay is also a turning point in the nurse's professional career. The professionalism of the healthcare team with whom the students will be trained and who will be involved in the whole practical process, will not only help them to deal with different real cases of intoxicated patients, but they will also learn about the protocols for action in emergencies and will learn about healthcare skills in the event of serious pathologies.

Internship Program in Toxicology in the Emergency Department for Nursing

Human beings are exposed to suffer numerous accidents such as intoxications that put their life and integrity at risk. Such problems can be caused by the inhalation of toxins, contact with pesticides and poisonous plants, or by the improper consumption of medicines and altered alcoholic beverages. As these are situations that require immediate attention by health personnel, it is necessary that professionals have the required skills to successfully carry out priority care procedures. For this reason, at TECH Global University we designed an Internship Program in Toxicology in the Emergency Department for Nursing, specialized in providing the latest knowledge in this field. Through state-of-the-art educational equipment, you will study essential aspects such as assessment models for intoxicated users in a mild or severe state, their therapeutic management and preventive life support techniques that allow the decontamination of the harmful effects caused to the body. In addition, in the curriculum, you will find the necessary tools to deal with cases of industrial poisoning (drugs, gases, solvents), heavy materials, phytosanitary products, cleaning products or natural agents (plants, mushrooms and animals). By mastering these concepts, you will be an expert in handling the approach protocols, according to the specific needs of the patient.

Get to know toxicology in emergencies for nursing

This program offered by TECH contains the most innovative and updated scientific agenda in the educational sector, stands out for its theoretical-practical approach and its avant-garde methodology, which facilitates the development of the curriculum in a more progressive and efficient way. In three weeks, distributed in eight hours a day from Monday to Friday, with classes taught in a prestigious hospital center, you will delve into the diagnosis of suspected poisoning, the phases of treatment to be applied and the preventive techniques of gastrointestinal absorption. Likewise, you will study in depth the epidemiology, etiology and repercussions of this condition in children and adolescents, as well as in adults and geriatrics. Finally, you will study toxicokinetics, the effects of xenobiotics and the approach guidelines adapted to each patient. As a result, you will be a specialist in attending, diagnosing and identifying clinical pictures in users suffering from related problems. In addition, you will obtain a multidisciplinary work that will allow you to perfect your skills in interventions in the toxicological area.
