About USACS

Overview

The North Alabama Emergency Medicine Fellowship provides a unique opportunity for primary care Physicians to become board certified in emergency medicine. The program is recognized by the American Academy of Emergency Physicians.

Highlights :

Clinical duties include 12-14 shifts per month in the ED. Fellows participate in didactic lecture series each Thursday, where they learn high-impact topics to prepare them for EM Boards and future careers as EM Physicians capable of working at any emergency room in the country.

We supplement didactic lectures with longitudinal Board Prep throughout the year so you will succeed on exam day.

Special topics courses are scattered throughout the fellowship as well, such as an ENT skills course, ortho and splinting course, dental emergency course, and multiple ultrasound courses to name a few.

Fellows also get to experience our unique fellowship seminars - special teaching opportunities such as our Ballistics Injuries Seminar at a large firearms center, a NASCAR Experience at the Talledega Speedway to learn about MVAs and traumas; a Snake Bite Symposium taught by wilderness medicine experts at the Birmingham Zoo, and multiple EMS and critical care ride-alongs, just to name a few. The curriculum also includes instruction on essential emergency medicine procedures, airway management, and ED bedside ultrasound.

Outcome :

Fellowship graduates will qualify for written and oral exams to receive board certification in emergency medicine (BCEM) by the American Board of Physician Specialists
