Chapters
• Critical knowledge and physiology points at start of each chapter
  rather than presented in cases
• Useful tools for many of the sequences
• Cases continue to illustrate flow through the ACoRN Process and
  Level of Risk determination
Sequences
• Reorganized with most
  acute/serious condition on the
  far left
• Some additional qualifiers to
  alter Organization of Care after
  Core Steps (e.g. glucose level in
 Neurology Sequence)
Sequences
• No significant change to Next Steps
• Still point where you exit the
  sequence on first run through to
  address next item on Problem List
• Consider the Level of Risk for each
  sequence
• Patients final level of risk is highest
  achieved in any sequence

                   • Streamlined the Core Steps
                   • Re-organized Organization of Care so
                     most urgent is to the left of the
                     sequence
                   • First exit still at Next Steps

ACoRN Providers and Instructors
• Will follow a process similar to NRP
   • 3-year renewal process
   • Online exam prior to attending a course
   • Requirement for teaching to maintain status as Instructor
• ACoRN is meant to be taught in a multidisciplinary team
   • Within the teaching team, the content knowledge and skills must be present
     to teach the entire core content of the ACoRN course
• Current ACoRN Instructors who have taught within the last 3 years
  (before COVID) will be eligible for update and renewal of status
ACoRN Courses
• Flexibility in how ACoRN is taught
• There will be clearly identified core content that is necessary for a
  complete course
• Additional materials will be provided for Instructors to use as add on
  modules based on a site/provider groups’ needs

• Instructor resources including “Key Concepts” videos, Simulation and
  Debrief guides etc will be on the Instructor side of the ACoRN website
Newborn Stabilization in Canada
• It is recognized that newborn stabilization skills are variable across the
  country.
• CPS Practice Point in process identifying the need for a standard
  stabilization program (similar to NRP) across the country.
ACoRN: The Vision
• ACoRN 2nd Edition is an update of the already fabulous ACoRN Program
• Move to more of a simulation-based content delivery
• Increased interactive nature with participant driven learning through
  simulation, debrief and reflection
• Standardization and support of educational quality through the Key
  Concepts anchoring talks and Simulation Scenarios
• Increased flexibility in design and delivery of the content
   • Modular components with identified ‘Core Content’ and additional resources
     available to Instructors as needed based on site/learners needs
• Evaluation and assessment through online pretest and participation in
  simulations
Implementation Across the Country
• Rolling out the new edition has been complicated by COVID
• The change to increase the hands on, intensively simulation-based
  group learning nature of the 2nd edition pedagogy in this environment
  is further complicating things

• Plan to reach out to each Regional/Provincial body to see how we can
  best support Instructor updates and roll out of the 2nd edition in the
  early fall.
• We welcome your thoughts on how this can best be done
ACoRN: The Vision
• Goal today: to highlight the newly developed content for you, a group
  of experienced ACoRN Instructors/Providers

• We welcome feedback on things that you think will work and
  opportunities for improvement
• We thank you, in advance, for your participation!
