@Jsiyani99hotma1 @NHSmallwood Thanks for your interest and enthusiasm with #POCUS training - it's much appreciated We don't currently have any vacancies on the working group, but when we do they will be advertised via the @acutemedicine membership and website Agree cross specialty working is hugely valuable!

#POCUS is a tool of value to anyone who looks after unwell patients...whatever their age, wherever they're assessed. The sooner it becomes standard of care, the better. Great work!

Interesting #RoyalBerks. Is FAMUS/POCUS the future of #geriatrics to reduce inappropriate diuretics / antibiotics? Should @GeriSoc follow @acutemedicine & push for trainees to have time to learn this skill instead of lines/ drains @RCPhysicians #EuGMS2023 #EuGMS @EuGMSSociety

And just like that, the week is over. It's been full of fun, enthusiasm, and some high quality scanning. Looking forward to continuing the collaboration and helping establish a #POCUS training pathway. Thankyou @NUSMedicine and all involved!

🚨*big news alert*🚨 The new AIM curriculum is approved and includes mandatory #POCUS competencies. All future @acutemedicine trainees will have skills in lung, abdo/renal & DVT scanning, alongside US guided vascular access. Great news for the specialty and our patients!

It goes without saying they can be modified to use across any department that will find them useful (ED / ICM especially relevant) The ultimate goal is to have #POCUS in the UK available for every patient, wherever they are, whenever they need it...
