Outpatient emergencies are an ever-expanding field that requires comprehensive preparation of nurses. In this sense, professionals must respond effectively and promptly to different critical conditions ranging from Deep Venous Thrombosis or Hemoptysis to Central Nervous System Infections. In the face of this, experts need to update their clinical skills frequently to ensure an improvement in the condition of users and to reduce mortality in these severe scenarios. However, this updating can be challenging given their heavy workload. 

For this reason, TECH has developed a revolutionary Postgraduate diploma in Nursing in Outpatient Emergencies. Designed by references in this field, the academic itinerary will delve into the most cutting-edge diagnostic techniques to stabilize patients (including drug administration, catheterization or management of Non-Invasive Mechanical Ventilation). In line with this, the syllabus will deal with the management of a wide range of pathologies, among which cardiovascular, neurological or digestive disorders stand out. In this way, graduates will obtain clinical skills to identify signs early and apply the most appropriate therapies in each case. In addition, the program will emphasize the multidisciplinary approach to Multiple-Victim Incidents, offering state-of-the-art triage techniques. 

In terms of methodology, the program is taught completely online so that nurses can plan their own schedules. In addition, TECH uses its innovative learning system: Relearning.
