The Wessex Strategic Plan
Our innovative approach to overcome barriers to POCUS accreditation is a story of success and has attracted attention from educators and POCUS enthusiasts across the country.
- Accredited courses, free for medical trainees in Wessex
- Supervised scanning days to get ahead and progress rapidly
- Remote mentoring and shared learning using Butterfly IQ+ and the Wessex Cloud, with Butterfly IQ+ probes available to our Acute Medicine and other trainees
- State-of-the-art ultrasound simulation sessions
Supported by:
The Butterfly IQ+ gives our POCUS trainees access to ultrasound wherever they are and allows their scans to be reviewed remotely by mentors. The Wessex Cloud allows scans to be uploaded anonymously and shared with others.
Our courses are supported by GE Healthcare who provide some of their latest machines from the GE Venue family.
The BODYWORKS Eve is a state-of-the art ultrasound simulator allowing trainees to develop their probe handling skills and recognise pathologies on ultrasound.
