About my talk
Sonographer educators in emergency departments (SEEDs) are a valuable asset to emergency ultrasound training programs. In this session, Carolynne will discuss various aspects of SEED recruitment, on-boarding, upskilling, and support needs. She will also provide an update on a new short training course being developed as part of her PhD, to support sonographers transitioning into PoCUS education.
