Are you an assisted life support accredited instructor?
RACGP is rolling out emergency management training (EMT) for registrars and members, and we’re seeking experienced Australian Resuscitation Council, Advanced Life Support level one or two (ARC ALS1 or ALS2) instructors to support our pilot sessions in Queensland this October and November.
If you're an RACGP supervisor or medical educator and hold current ARC ALS1 or ALS2 instructor accreditation, we’d love to hear from you! This is a great opportunity to contribute to a nationally significant initiative and help shape emergency training in general practice.
