The STABLE Program - March 11, 2026

Danville, PA US
March 11, 2026
This is an in-person educational activity. The S.T.A.B.L.E. Program® educational course provides didactic, video and conversational opportunities to learn about post-resuscitation care of sick and premature newborns prior to transport of the infant to a higher-level Intensive Care Nursery. Reaching healthcare providers of many disciplines, the S.T.A.B.L.E. Program provides learners with a universal platform to develop, organize, and carry out a systematic method of assessment and stabilization skills to ensure the sick newborn patient has the best opportunity for good outcomes. Health care providers responsible for the initial management of these sick patients can use this activity to provide a framework of skills covering several key components, including glucose management, thermal regulation, and respiratory management, among others. A separate but REQUIRED, online pre-course, S.T.A.B.L.E. Foundations, must be completed by all learners more than 48 hours in advance of in-person course to qualify for participation. *NOTE: Learners or their respective departments will be responsible for purchasing or supplying a 7th edition S.T.A.B.L.E. Program textbook for course use.

Target Audience

This activity is designed for Perinatal, Pediatric and Emergency Physicians, and OB Nurses.  Other learner groups such as respiratory therapists, EMS pre-hospital providers, emergency department and obstetrical technicians, medical and nursing students would also benefit from this education.
