ECHO RCE for Critical Care Practitioners
Where: NICE, FRANCE
When: 4th – 6th of October 2024
Who should attend: The workshop is directed at Emergency, Intensive Care and Anesthetics physicians. It will cover the curriculum for Intensive Care accreditation.
We are excited to announce that this course will be held in Nice, France just after our 5 day POCUS course. We have chosen Nice because it is a beautiful Mediterranean city close to Monaco and Cannes. It is a vibrant city full of restaurants and cafes. The old city is renowned for it’s markets. There are direct international flights to Nice.
The course will be run at the Hotel Aston La Scala. A direct link to booking accommodation with this hotel will be provided on registration. The hotel Aston La Scala is located within a few minutes’ walk to the center of Nice next to the Place Massena and the old city. A voluntary program for social events will be provided closer to the time.
The ECHO Masterclass is a one-day online course followed by a 2-day hands on workshop. A basic 2D understanding of ECHO is required to attend this Masterclass. Numbers are limited.
