GET FOAMEd rural masterclass session : Spotting the Crook!

Listen Later

Hi folks!

We have an idea for another FOAMEd educational series..its called GET FOAMEd ( Generalist Education & Training via Free Open Access Meducation)

Our intent is to aim it at the rural generalist doctor, remote nurse or paramedic, or if you are working in remote areas and need to make do with less toys and resources. I know we have lots of listeners from rural and remote Canada, USA and Europe.

For the first episode we decided to talk on Spotting the Crook! This is a very peculiar Australian vernacular term, which essentially means identifying the deteriorating and critically ill patient at an early stage. Crook is Australian for sick, not criminal! We might introduce our international listeners to other weird Australian terms , as we progress through the series!

Here is the screencast..
