About Course
SkillsForMed BESTRAIN (Essential Skills Training on Best Practices)
Do you want to upskill your existing nurses?
If you want to ensure that your existing nurses will provide safe and high quality patient care, then you have come to the right place.
Our learning content is standardised and evidence based. It will sensitize the learner on the best practices of a skill. A learner can install our learning app on their mobile and enrol into BESTRAIN programme. After which, they can access our lessons and best practices videos anytime and anywhere.
We will reinforce the best practices of a skill in a workshop. Our workshops are interactive, consisting of hands on training using manikins and role plays of real life scenarios. We keep the number of learners to a small group to make it more effective. We have developed a workshop manual to provide standardised best practices training.
