Training at RCA

RCA conducts CDP-accredited training thoughout the year on all of our products.



Guest speakers are invited from time to time, based on delegate feedback or specific requests.  Specific training sessions can be arranged to meet your or your hospital’s particular needs – don’t hesitate to contact us in this regard.



Workshops are held in the RCA Training Centre, situated in our offices in Kya Sands Business Park in Randburg.  We offer an informative and enjoyable day beginning with a theoretical session using a big screen presentation, with every effort being made to ensure that the theory is evidence based.



Following lunch on the patio, a practical session with actual machines and real-life scenarios based on case studies kicks off with all participants having the chance to set up or trouble shoot the products – hands-on has never been clearer. Doctors benefit from this session more than most as they have the opportunity to work with products from set up to go, including calibrating when necessary. Something they do not often have the opportunity to do in the NICU / ICU setting such as High Frequency Oscillatory and CPAP ventilator support.

​

Following the practical session, there is an opportunity to engage in question and answer time with the specialists, which is always an interesting and sometimes a very lively session.
