In order for an individual to become clinically competent using an ultrasound probe, they must feel comfortable using one. Therefore, we believe that point of care ultrasound must become an integral aspect of RCSIs teaching for its medical students and beyond.
The first PoCUS event in collaboration with Radiology Society students, RCSI SIM team and clinicians took place in March 2020. This was the first pilot student and staff partnership with the common goal of establishing ultrasound as a fundamental medical programme skill.
