The Resuscitation Council UK Advanced Resuscitation of the Newborn Infant course provides two days of specialist neonatal emergency teaching, practical airway stations, simulation and structured assessment. Its syllabus covers rapid evaluation, critical illness, very premature births, congenital problems, ventilation and emergency communication. It is relevant to experienced paramedics in newborn retrieval roles and specialist neonatal teams, rather than general ambulance first-response staff. A current NLS provider certificate and regular care of sick or preterm newborn infants are required, with local course centres handling bookings.
