ALARM was developed by family physicians, obstetricians, midwives and nurses, who jointly continue to maintain and teach the course. Backed by the SOGC, the ALARM course arose out of our work to improve the care provided to women during labour, their fetuses and newborns, and their families.
This two-day course offers case-based plenary sessions, hands-on workshops and a comprehensive examination process. The content of the course is evidence based and incorporates the Canadian practice guidelines, so participants who complete the course gain an understanding of the latest best practices for providing care.
The ALARM course objective is to evaluate, update and maintain the competence of specialists, family physicians, midwifes and nurses. Upon completion, participants understand how to improve the outcomes and process of intra-partum and immediate postpartum care.
The course is presented by local faculty in combination with The Society of Obstetricians and Gynaecologists of Canada (SOGC) and is provided to both PGY1 and PGY2 residents.
This course will be offered to residents at a reduced cost and sign up is on a first-come first-served basis.
