GEMC:Global Emergency Medicine Curriculum (Main)

Background

The primary goal of the Global Emergency Medicine Curriculum section is to become the go-to place for global emergency medicine curriculum development. This section is set up in collaboration with the Society for Academic Emergency Medicine's (SAEM) Global Emergency Medicine Academy(GEMA) and additional partners.

Instructions

  • Please include "GEMC: Note Name" before the name of each GEMC note (to keep them easily separate from quick treatment notes). WikEM does not currently support video or PPT presentations, so the GEMC notes should include external links to video or presentations hosted elsewhere.
  • See Updating and Creating Notes on WikEM for general information on creating and editing notes on WikEM
  • We will add a template outline for GEMC notes shortly
