If you’re an EM consultant or post-FRCEM doctor in training and are interested in getting involved in RCEM exams, come along to our training day and then join one of the SBA groups - Primary, MRCEM or FRCEM. Great for CPD, networking and supporting your local trainees.
Sara Robinson flying the flag for @EdinburghEM @NHSLothianMedEd discussing the importance of peer support - an immediate informal response to staff distress. Amazing programme in NHS Lothian. #RCEMasc
Thanks @riecriticalcare for the lovely card and bag of chocolates. The ED remains under significant pressure and the whole team is working flat-out. It’s nice to be appreciated! @EdinburghEM
Enjoying the @RCEMpresident address from home, rather than from Bournemouth, due to bloomin’ covid. At least I get cuddles from Ripley. Awesome tips on teaching clinical reasoning.

Manjeet was the Lead examiner for our Fellowship exam. He put so much into his role and there are so many trainees and now Consultants who benefited from his support. The specialty, his team and RCEM will miss him very much @RCollEM @UHDBTrust @RCEMdean @EmilyBeet1
It is with deep sadness that we share the news that we've lost a colleague. Mr Manjeet Singh Riyat was a hugely respected Emergency Consultant at Royal Derby Hospital uhdb.nhs.uk/latest-news/trib…
Huge thanks to @AldiUK Gilmerton Rd, Edinburgh, for my Easter present, keeping me sane while I’m in hospital! Eggs given to all the maternity patients and staff, amazing!
