The loss of situational awareness under a high cognitive load can create a clinical risk for clinicians at all levels. This webinar discusses the recognition of these circumstances and how best to minimise their impact via self-reflection and self-awareness. This session is not a clinical discussion as such, but rather a guide as to how to navigate difficult clinical situations more safely.
