Not a Consultant Practitioner in EM- BSc, MSc, & PhD (Advanced Clinical Practice).
UK
Joined February 2017
That’s the cocktail: individuals from different professions completing a part time MSc in Advanced Practice & then all holding the title of ACP in EM or in a speciality, doing the same job once carried out by Drs - seeing serious & undifferentiated cases. This is not safe at all.
@timricketts_ @ponteepon @Parody_RCGP @medicalmodelbri @pa_StephenNash @UMAPsUK @CMAPs_UK I took on a novel role in my ED. We had ODPs in resus. We took on nursing and more enhanced skills, we werent just airway assists. As an ACP, i see the same as any of our ED ACPs, whether nurse, physio, paramedic or otherwise in line with RCEM.
