GPO ultrasound bootcamp

We are excited to offer Northern physicians certification as Independent Practitioners with the Canadian Point of Care Ultrasound Society, close to your home! A portion of the course costs have been subsidized for Northern Physicians by RCCbc SPIFI funding and Prince George RCME.

This high demand course is targeted for those working in Oncology, Emergency and Hospital based care. You will learn a combination of heart, lung, abdominal and DVT exams. You will confidently be able to differentiate between heart failure, pneumonia, pleural effusion and features of pulmonary embolism allowing for earlier treatment and potentially reducing the need for patient travel. There will also be opportunity to learn procedural tips for pleural effusions and ascites on real models with positive findings.

Upon successful completion of the bootcamp, participants will be eligible for certification with the Canadian Point of Care Ultrasound Society as independent practitioners in the assessment of abdominal free fluid, common pulmonary pathology, pericardial effusion, global cardiac function, and DVT.
