Education that improves and saves lives.
High Acuity Low Occurrence (HALO) programs and certifications are #experiential healthcare education events that prepare teams for high-consequence patient encounters. Informed by a decade of experiential healthcare education experience and many lifetimes of clinical care, we built HALO for us, the caregivers.
HALO graduates are prepared for tough cases.
Experiential learning
High-fidelity simulation
Stress inoculation
Fatigue programming
Learning on a computer sucks.
You know it, we know it, our patients know it. To truly practice and prepare for emergency and critical care clinicians needs realistic, in-person, hyper-realistic experiences, so we built HALO.
HALO - Airway
Spelunking for the glottic opening thru a soup of vomit, blood and teeth while the saturations are dropping and hearts rates rise is a distinct experience. This course brings you the latest in best practices in airway management. Leaners must be in clinical positions where intubation is expected and within scope of practice. Includes tissue labs and team based simulation emersion cases.
HALO - Breathing
Can you hear the vent alarm from a floor away? This course brings you the latest in best practices in respiratory and ventilation management. Leaners must be in clinical positions where advanced airway and ventilator management is expected and within scope of practice. Includes tissue labs and team based simulation emersion cases.
HALO - Circulatory
ECMO, wedge pressures, LVADS, this course is literally not for the feint of heart or mind. This course brings you the latest in best practices in cardiac and circulatory management. Learners must be in clinical positions where advanced cardiac is expected and within scope of practice. Includes tissue labs and team based simulation emersion cases.
All Hazards Certification
High acuity and low occurrence events represent the most significant risk in the lives of both patients and clinicians. After years of development, the HALO certification combines and enhances several other certifications with simulation-based education and iterative experiential learning in a team-based clinical environment.
"Clinicians want and need to practice to prepare for the environments they are called to serve. The HALO Airway course prepared my whole team for the cases we see rarely, but they are objectively awful experiences when we do. We are more prepared now." S.M. Family Practice Physician, MT Critical Access Hospital, 2022
