Standing room only for the POCUS cases that changed my practice session at #SAMontheCAM Cracking cases and presentations! FAMUS providing a prize for the most popular presentation and POCUS poster at the conference...good luck! @acutemedicine

We're delighted to be working with @ButterflyNetInc and @acutemedicine to launch the national SAM-FAMUS cloud, to help support training. Free access for candidates, SAM members and registered Supervisors. Details here: https://t.co/Hg0OvaWHcr

Are you interested in both #POCUS and @acutemedicine? Do you have a cracking case to share? SAM are running a POCUS short cases session at #SAMBelfast and we want you there to present - all clinicians welcome! Details here: https://t.co/R6w6MVAMW7 🚨Abstracts close 15/2🚨

🚨 Accreditation record 🚨 November '23 saw our biggest number of new accreditations: 15 Taking the total since we launched to over 200. Congratulations to all those accredited - keep on scanning and hopefully we'll see you as the Supervisors of the future! #POCUSforall

#FUSIC accreditation continues to lead the way in POCUS education Each new module lead is an absolute giant in the world of POCUS training and education...congratulations on the roles! We look forward to continuing to work closely developing POCUS training in the UK + beyond

We are taking FAMUS and FUSIC heart to Dublin today @ThePillarDublin Excellent faculty, organisation and enthusiasm from the attendees as part of #VTEDub23 Hopefully the start of a long and fruitful collaboration! @cianmcdermott @ICUltrasonica @tomasbreslin @NHSmallwood

#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!

Ultrasound in Acute Medicine is an important aspect of improving patient care and outcomes. Essential that training in ultrasound within Acute Medicine is supported with both time and equipment. https://t.co/g5CpxxLBiJ

🚨more big news🚨 FAMUS has now become a modular accreditation, giving more flexibility for those wanting to learn #POCUS We have thoracic, abdo/renal and DVT/peripheral vascular modules, with some nephrology offerings coming soon Head to https://t.co/jVv5CvHE95 for details!

FAMUS comes to Severn! Good luck with the course Morgan and team. It's great to see new course centres springing up across the country. The demand for #POCUS training is strong! Info around courses or to become a course centre can be found here: https://t.co/o5zKCfbrvB

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!

No abdo/renal picture but another productive day DVT + peripheral vascular access today and a chance to consolidate the learning from the rest of the week Tomorrow we have local MSK teaching and some governance and accreditation pathway discussions It's been a cracking week!

Andy Walden (he of the impossible to remember Twitter handle) taking the group through lung ultrasound cases and pathology. Great engagement and enthusiasm, and lots of scanning time. Next stop: abdomen / renal! #POCUSforall

We're in Singapore this week @NUSMedicine helping support them on their #POCUS journey. A week of teaching, mentoring and developing links to help develop training pathways. Looking forward to a really productive week!

🚨*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...

We now have example business cases for the purchase of ultrasound machines for AMUs / @acutemedicine teams. Please feel free to use / edit / share widely as needed to help all our aim for all AMUs across the country get access to an ultrasound machine https://t.co/K3nEn69QnP

Back to where it all began... @acutemedicine returns to Bristol this March, and here is the room where the 1st ever FAMUS meeting was held (before it was even called FAMUS!). #timeflies @NHSmallwood @AndrewW21023349 @DrAlGilmore @davidmurday @martindachsel @RamMatsa
