Critical Care Outreach: Described• Outreach is “an
organisational approach to ensure equity of care for all critically ill patients, irrespective of their location”
• CCOR Should be a collaboration & partnership between the ICU & ward based teams (ICS 2002)

IntroductionCritical Care Outreach (UK) is described as “an organisational approach to ensure equity of care for all critically ill patients, irrespective of their location” (National Outreach Forum 2003).A need for an approved standardised programme of education across the Northern Region providing practitioners with the essential knowledge, skills and competence to effectively function as independent Outreach practitioners was identified.
Key Points•CCORC provides a structured approach to the training of members of Critical Care Outreach teams•Combination of seminars, portfolio development and simulation have proven to be a successful approach

Results
Programme StructureCCOrC© is a part time practice focused, work based educational framework and competency package. The programme can be undertaken at three levels and links with the established Continuing Inter-Professional Development (CiPD) framework at Northumbria University. Successful course participants may apply to undertake the Accreditation of Prior Learning (APL) process to obtain 40 CAT points at level 6 (degree) or 7 (masters).
Teaching and Learning StrategiesThere are a series of half-day workshops, seminars and lectures covering: the learning outcomes, clinical competencies, assessment strategy, and guidance on attainment of academic levels, reflective thinking, practice portfolio development, MCQ, OSCE and ‘test scenario’ preparation.
Evaluation
Preliminary evaluation via electronic survey demonstrates extremely positive outcomes in terms of knowledge, skills, competence and confidence in practice, with all participants grading their expertise greater than 7.63 (range 0 – 10) in all areas following course completion. In particular the opportunity to network and share practice experiences with other Outreach colleagues through the process of collaborative reflection was reported to be one of the key benefits of undertaking the course.
Clinical Skills Framework Competency AssessmentThe themes of the outreach practice based competencies/clinical skills framework to be demonstrated prior to the 3-day final assessment programme are:•History taking & rapid assessment of the acutely ill patient•Clinical assessment of the respiratory system•Clinical assessment of the cardiovascular system•Clinical assessment of the gastrointestinal system•Clinical assessment of the nervous system•Clinical assessment of the renal system•Clinical assessment of sepsis•Risk management & legal issues•Research & audit•Education & training•Leadership & multi-professional working
