Education & Free CEUs

Passy Muir is offering free Remote Live In-Service Webinars in order to get our education out to those who need it quickly and conveniently. We are with you during this time and want to assist you with maintaining the requirements for your certifications and licensures through free continuing education. These free courses are being offered through a remote live in-service format, from which you get both the education and time to speak to a clinician with your questions. View the weekly meeting schedule on the Remote Live In-Service Webinars page, or contact us to schedule one.

Passy Muir currently offers a comprehensive selection of free, web-based self-study courses that cover basic and advanced concepts for Passy Muir^® Valve assessment and application. These courses serve as an excellent introduction and provide a baseline level of knowledge and will be helpful to your team should you take advantage of the more advanced education provided during an on-site visit.

Designed to provide clinical information regarding the basics of a tracheostomy, including the physiologic impact of tracheostomy on a patient’s respiratory, speech, and swallowing functions, these live events feature step-by-step strategies for assessment and application of a no-leak speaking Valve to restore communication, improve swallowing and secretion management. Offered for CEU credit, these comprehensive workshops provide detailed information about tracheostomy, and feature hands-on learning, case studies, videos and group discussion.

If you have taken our webinar self-study courses and would like to have your entire multidisciplinary team receive the information provided in the webinars, one of our clinical specialists can schedule and host a live group webinar for your facility. These group webinars are tailored to meet the individual needs of your facility and the ventilators you use. Live interaction with the Passy Muir Clinician provides the opportunity for question and answers and facilitates team-building and competency development for your group.

In-services begin with a presentation on the benefits and application of the Passy Muir^® Valve. We review the physiology of the upper aerodigestive tract, including the impact of a tracheostomy on communication, swallowing, and more. The in-services also provide information on the many evidence-based, clinical benefits of the Passy Muir^® Valve, including the positive impact on communication, improvements with swallowing, return of smell and taste, improved secretion management, and earlier decannulation and weaning.
