EMSGuy1982 Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Hi all, I am a new graduate working in urgent care and am looking for any suggestions for good sources of CME that's focused on UC medicine. I stumbled upon the emergency medicine boot camp conference and wondered if that was worth anything. Looks like a solid conference but thought I would see if anyone has been through it. I also searched here on the forum for good references for UC medicine but the most recent is from 2013. Is Minor Emergencies: splinters to fractures still any good? I already have Epocrates and uptodate on my phone and John Hopkins antibiotic reference app as well. Just looking to broaden out a bit. You can never have to many books :-) Thanks for any advice/suggestions in advance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuralER/Ortho Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Urgent care:RAP, EMRAP, primary care:RAP... minor emergencies is good. You're set with uptodate as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMSGuy1982 Posted December 14, 2016 Author Share Posted December 14, 2016 Thank you! I appreciate it. The EM RAP is fairly inexpensive. Plus you can never go wrong with Mel Herbert. His PANCE prep videos with HIPPO were great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RuralER/Ortho Posted December 14, 2016 Share Posted December 14, 2016 It's totally worth it. Also, 4.5 hours of painless Cat 1 CME monthly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jcash Posted December 15, 2016 Share Posted December 15, 2016 I worked in UC and went to ER boot camp course last year. It was great! The speakers were really good, knowledgeable and lots of experience. I took the extra EKG and X-ray course which were also good. Only downside is it's geared toward ER. So in UC we don't have rapid blood work or CT so some things I wouldn't be able to get done. But that did help when knowing when to send to ER or ok to fu w PCP.
