Young Grad Code Blue: Night at the ER!

We had a special day at the Annual Conference dedicated to young grads from the classes of 2021, 2022, 2023, 2024 and CVM students.

Schedule

Sunday Morning:

9:00 a.m. - 11:00 a.m.
A night at the ER with Dr. Loewen - 2CE
Emergency medicine is an area where unpredictability and unknowns are prevalent. Yet with a firm foundation in a problem-oriented approach, and going back to the “basics”, your confidence in emergency medicine can improve! This lecture followed case-based approaches to common emergencies. There was time set aside during the lecture for discussion and for attendees to apply their knowledge.

11:00 a.m. - 11:15 a.m.
Break (food and refreshments provided)

11:15 a.m. - 12:00 p.m.
DVM Year 0-3: What’s in store for new and future graduates with Dr. Epstein - 1CE

Sunday Afternoon:

Attendees either participated in our Emergency Escape Room* or attended the Sunday afternoon sessions about Small Animals, Equine or Food Animals at the Annual Conference.

*About the Emergency Escape Room: " A Night at the ER" :
Emergency medicine requires a team and collaboration to be successful (as does most of veterinary medicine). Attendees applied their knowledge of veterinary medicine, critical thinking skills, as well as communication and teamwork skills at the “night at the ER” escape room. There were puzzles linked to the content discussed during the morning to help them save a patient on the way! Ultimately, there was a debrief not only on the escape room but also on how to apply debriefing in emergency settings.
