The curriculum is an educational resource for EM residents wishing to get involved in the global EM community.
Dr. Stacey presented an abstract on the topic at #CORD24.
His presentation was titled: Building, Delivering, and Evaluating a Longitudinal Global Health Curriculum for Emergency Medicine Residents (Innovation Abstract).
Dr. Stacey (UNC), Dr. Justin Myers (UNC), UNC alum Alexandra Digenakis (ECU), and Elizabeth DeVos (University of Florida) created the online curriculum for Emergency Medicine residents across these institutions, and are looking to expand it to other interested residents throughout the U.S.
The curriculum features components such as:
- A monthly lecture series
- Multi-institutional journal clubs (held via Zoom)
- Global health meetings
Examples of topics covered in the curriculum include: Social Determinates of Health, POCUS in Low Resource settings, and Careers in Global EM, among others.
