Tracheostomy is a surgical opening in the trachea. Tracheostomies are becoming increasingly common place both within the acute setting and the community. As a result of this there is an expectation of increased knowledge and more advanced nursing and healthcare skills caring for these patients. This tracheostomy care training course aims to familiarise students with the reasons for tracheostomy and will raise awareness and ensure staff have sufficient knowledge to work safely around them.
