*Hands-on Sessions
There will be multiple stations during the hands-on sessions in the afternoon, so echocardiography can be practiced in groups allowing hands-on experience for everyone (both on simulator and volunteers, i.e. healthy children).
Morning session – (Target audience – PhD or post-docs) Forging and leading collaborations to advance science and have impact
Objective: To develop doctoral/post-doc nurse scientists knowledge and understanding of building and leading interdisciplinary impactful research
Networking lunch for all morning and afternoon attendees
Afternoon session – (Target audience – Pre-docs) Getting started with your research: what, how, and who with?

This will be an interactive training session dealing with concrete clinical situations.
By the end of the workshop participants should be able to:
- Provide comprehensive care to an adolescent with a chronic condition (e.g. eating disorders)
- Identify an adolescent with a mental health problem and how to respond (including suicidal conduct)
- Use appropriate communication skills to address the situation of an adolescent with risky sexual behaviour
- Recognize an adolescent misusing internet/social media, and respond using a systemic approach (e.g. involving the family)
The workshop content and pedagogic approaches are based on the Euteach programme supported by EAP (www.euteach.com)
ESPNIC respiratory workshop set up to attract intensivists, fellow paediatric intensive care, neonatologists, emergency doctors and paediatricians
