RCEM Learning

Happy April! This month for the April 2025 episode of the RCEM Learning Podcast we have Andy and Dave talking about the use of beta-blockers in sepsis. Becky and Chris talking about mortality reviews in the ED. In a similarly patient-safety aligned topic I speak to Maegan Ladell talking about patient safety culture and then finally, as always, New Online. If you'd like to email us, please feel free to do so here. After listening, complete a short quiz to have your time accredited for CPD at the RCEMLearning website!
