Description: The Acute Systematic Clinical Emergency Response and Treatment, or ASCERT, program is an intensive 2-day course (First day Dec 8th AM - Finishes Dec 9th PM) that is designed for medical professionals who deal directly with acutely unwell adult patients. ASCERT is primarily engineered for junior doctors in Foundation Year 2 and early core/specialist training years. However, other medical professionals who have a direct role in patient assessment may also register. If you would like to improve the outcome of your treatment of acutely ill patients, ASCERT is almost certainly the right option for you. We take pride in the success that our delegates have in the field, and we look forward to seeing you in an upcoming ASCERT session.
