ER-DRIP education workshop learning to implement family presence during resuscitation into
practice
The practice of allowing family to be present during resuscitation has been debated in emergency departments since the early
1980’s, with evidence that the practice and implementation of family presence during resuscitation (FPDR) is inconsistent
despite formal endorsement. This study aimed to develop an education package for emergency nurses, paramedics and medical
personnel in order to develop competence in the implementation of FPDR. The aim of this interactive workshop will be to teach
participants on how to implement the ER-DRIP (emergency personnel, reassurance, diagnosis, regular up-dates, interventions
and prognosis), education package into clinical practice. Working through the education package participants will identify
resuscitation team roles and responsibilities, identify the barriers, benefits and enablers of family presence during resuscitation
using videos to assist learning. The three scenarios have been developed to assist with participant discussion and understanding
of the implementation of FPDR.
