Clinical Lead in ED Ultrasound Resources
These resources have been provided by the ACEM and EMUGs Collaboration Working Group to assist Clinical Leads in Ultrasound in developing ED ultrasound training programs.

POCUS leaders in our volunteer community actively advocate and lead the way with the uptake, integration and development of the utilisation of POCUS in critical care settings.
EMUGs encourages anyone with an interest in advancing the use of POCUS to get involved in our initiatives.
