About Critical Second
Critical Second Nursing Cue Cards were created in 2005 by Andrew and Tess Blood, a husband and wife team who are both nursing professionals.
As an undergraduate nurse educator and an ICU critical care nurse, Andrew often encountered complaints from nurses about how hard it is to do something or remember something. Existing nursing cue systems were either difficult to use or difficult to understand.
Andrew and Tess combined their professional experience with research into the needs of nurses to develop an innovative, convenient and easy to understand system of cues for difficult to remember nursing information.
VISION
To build a culture where innovation and education are seen as the norm, and solution makers are seen as the future of the ever changing face of nursing.
VALUES
Being creative and innovative in the pursuit of excellence and problem solving
Promotion and development of education
Being accessible and flexible to the widest possible range of learners
