EKG interpretation is a high-risk/high-reward clinical activity. Get it wrong and patient outcomes could be disastrous, exposing you and your urgent care center to liability and hefty damages claims. Get it right and you protect your patients, avert disaster, avoid liability, and save lives. Never mind that you aspire to improve your EKG interpretation skills and accuracy to become a better clinician -- the expectation is that you’ll get it right every time.
That’s why EB Medicine is bringing you The Urgent Care EKG Course, an in-depth training program focused on EKG interpretation essentials and best practices. This expert-guided self-study course picks up where your academic program and previous training likely left off. The Urgent Care EKG Course gives you practical, hands-on, time-tested techniques for enhancing clinical skills, improving accuracy of EKG interpretation, and, in so doing, boosting clinician confidence.
The Urgent Care EKG Course is divided into 10 engaging video modules, conveniently accessible online. UC clinicians will relate to every spoken and written word in every frame, from the moment your instructor introduces herself as your peer to the closing credits. Each module is clearly organized, narrowly focused on what matters in practice and on shift, and full of real-life scenarios and actual EKGs.
