IMPACT Course (Mar 04 - 05, 2024)
IMPACT Course is organized by Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow (RCPSG) and will be held from Mar 04 - 05, 2024 at Royal College of Physicians and Surgeons of Glasgow, Glasgow, Scotland, United Kingdom.
Description:
The IMPACT course is a two-day course introducing the principles and practice of acute medical care and related knowledge, skills, understanding and attitudes. It enables trainee doctors to assess and treat acutely unwell patients and where appropriate gives guidance on when to ask for help. The course provides key point presentations, workshops, “hands on” skills stations and critically ill patient teaching is given by experienced instructors in a supportive environment.
The course is aimed at CT1 and CT2 level doctors in acute medical specialties including Acute Medicine, Acute Care Common Stem (ACCS) and General Internal Medicine. It is also open to candidates at FY2 level who are able to demonstrate a particular interest in pursuing a career in the specialties noted above. FY2 doctors must have completed at least eight months practice in acute medical specialties in their FY2 year before they can attend the course. Advanced Clinical Practitioners in acute medicine are also encouraged to attend as their skill mix is very similar to those of junior doctors in training at CT1 level.
