The lack of engagement from medical colleges on this health and human rights issue has been a source of disappointment for many. Very pleased to see @acemonline @NursingCENNZ and other ANZ emergency care groups strongly advocating for an enduring ceasefire acem.org.au/News/June-2024/E…

Dear #echofirst learners Please make sure you spend time in learning how to improve quality of images and acquire the best quality views before jumping into the excitement of measurements and quantifications. Measuring a poor quality image can be misleading and potentially dangerous as it may lead to wrong conclusions and poor management decisions.

I’d probably go with player-coach in a football (soccer) team, who also takes the penalties! You do have key roles to play, and you need to step up in critical moments (e.g. challenging family meetings, difficult/ time-critical procedures)
