- TWO DAY WORKSHOP
Focussed Cardiac Ultrasound
Our accredited 2‑day Focussed Cardiac Ultrasound workshop is designed for medical professionals seeking practical, clinically relevant cardiac ultrasound skills. It is suitable for junior doctors through to consultants, including emergency physicians, intensivists, anaesthetists, cardiology trainees, general medicine and surgical clinicians, and rural GPs. We also welcome paramedics, nurses and other health professionals looking to develop point‑of‑care cardiac ultrasound capability.
The workshop equips clinicians with the essential skills to confidently perform a focussed cardiac ultrasound exam, supporting accurate diagnosis and timely patient care.
Training is delivered in small groups with a balanced mix of theory and hands‑on scanning. With a 1:3 educator ratio and real‑patient scanning, participants receive personalised guidance and ample practice time. Whether you are picking up the probe for the first time or refining existing skills, our team tailors the learning experience to ensure you gain maximum value from the workshop.
