Certification ceremony for emergency medicine docs held

Hyderabad: Certification ceremony for doctors who completed their 1-year and 3-year training in emergency medicine at various hospitals in India has been conducted under the aegis of Apollo Hospitals and the Royal College of Emergency Medicine (RCEM), United Kingdom.

MBBS doctors who work full-time in the emergency departments of Apollo Hospitals in Hyderabad, Bangalore, Chennai, Navi Mumbai undergo a highly supervised clinical and academic training of one year duration known as Emergency Medicine Foundation Programme (EMFP). EMFP trainees and their supervisors are able to record and sign-off skills and competencies on the online NHS Portfolio with RCEM oversight. This portfolio remains as a permanent record of training.

It is wonderful to see such inspirational and committed support from Apollo Hospitals, for your career and success of emergency medicine. This is my first international travel since the pandemic impacted the world," Dr Katherine Henderson said.

"This is a programme we are proud of, it's a special program that gives you clinical and professional skills, which equips you to give effective care in emergency situations in your health systems, that is incredibly powerful, which transforms you to be better doctors and deliver a high standard of care. A structured training programme like this gets the best out of you," she added. During the pandemic it was an enormous challenge for the emergency staff all over the world and all of us rose to this challenge in an incredible way. In emergency medicine we are running against time, we have to move on to the next patient, despite not having all the information we need to take decisions, we are really inhibited but are happy to adapt the new technology to ensure the best care for our patients. Congratulations for choosing a career in emergency medicine, do continue to have that fire to do better for our patients.

This is a special occasion to take one step further for a safer country and safer world. You dedicated your lives in the service of humanity by becoming doctors and took one step further and choose emergency medicine as your profession, because it is indeed the gateway, the critical differentiator and quite a significant area, Dr Sangita Reddy, Apollo MD, said.

EMFP trainees can continue further training and gain their Membership of College of Emergency Medicine (MRCEM) which is a recognised postgraduate qualification in the UK, with further opportunities to join higher specialist training in the UK.
