Postfellowship Study Day - 11th April, 2014

Category: Training - Postfellowship Study Days

Date: April 11th 2014

Location: RAF Brize Norton

 

Dear post-FRCA Registrars,

I am organising a PFSD in conjunction with the Royal Air Force to be held at RAF Brize Norton on Friday 11th April 2014. This replaces the PFSD date in March for Frenchay. Subsequent PFSD dates are likely to also move as a result of the date change. I realise that for LTFT trainees the Friday might be a problem but unfortunately I can't change the date. Hopefully by providing the date a few months in advance this may help.

The topics will include clinical advances and lessons learnt during 10 years in Helmand, the Aeromedical Transfer pathway, MERT (Medical Emergency Response Team) CCAST (Critical Care Air Support Team) plus other subjects. It should be an interesting day and something different for us to attend. Further information will become available nearer the date.

In order to give the RAF an idea of numbers of who shall be attending I've created a very short Survey Monkey questionnaire. I'd be very grateful if you could complete this by Monday 24th February 2014. I'm also planning on arranging a minibus to take people to Brize Norton if required although for people who live in the Cotwolds they may want to travel independently.

Best wishes,

Dr Edward Scarth, Post-CCT Clinical Fellow in Anaesthesia & Intensive Care Medicine, Frenchay Hospital
