Episode # 2- Patient assessment
This episode is the first 'proper' one and we are discussing triage and assessment at the front door in line with the framework CCT1- the whole part of CCT1 knowledge and skills.
We have mentioned a few documents in the podcast so they are linked below for your viewing pleasure.
We are still trying to get the audio right so please keep listening and we hope it will improve each time- thank you for supporting this and don't hesitate to get in touch! Education is power!

Episode # 3- Pain assessment in the ED
Hi lovely people,
Welcome to our 3rd podcast and we actually forgot to say on the podcast that we have a new jingle!! Thanks to Nigel (@Nrtaylor101) from the @RCEMLearning team for his help with that.
Ok so we are pretty chuffed with the support you guys have given us so far and we want to keep improving, this podcast does have a couple of blips- bear with me as I am still trying to get good at editing the content.
This episode is all about Pain in the ED and centered around the CCT2 part of the framework, we talk about each part although we never did quite get to what the 3 parts of pain management were so if you can help get in touch.
We also talked about Fascia Iliaca Blocks (FIB) at the end which is becoming a very common technique for the management of pain associated with fractures to the Neck of Femur (NOF). Check out this fantastic blog by the guys at St Emlyns which explains it all here
We talked about the RCEM safety alert for FIB and this can be found here
Finally we wanted to link you to the framework again but specifically what each page says about the level of competency and how you get to each level so those images are below.
The more you use the framework the more it'll become second nature to pick a subject do some self directed learning around it then return to the competency to link it.
Take home points-
Assess pain using a tool (i.e. 1 to 10)
Give appropriate analgesia
Please reassess pain after analgesia is given
Keep doing amazing thing in ED!!

Episode # 4- Emergency Nursing- maybe the best job in the world....
This is slightly different to our previous podcasts-
Liz (@SisterScrappy) and I (@ashleighlowther) having a chat about how we got into being an ED Nurse and what the current situation is. This was sparked by a conversation I had with an amazing ED nurse talking about leaving the job and I found myself trying to convince her but with a struggle, as everything she said was completely legitimate.
Anyway in the podcast we make reference to Liz's blog so here is the link to that.
We also chatted about the absolutely fabulous presentation by @LizCrowe2 available here https://vimeo.com/188765724
We hope you enjoy and as always are very open to suggestions for future blogs or chats.
Coming soon, Liz and I + Harmony are going to chat about becoming an ACP- the future is bright!
Much love

Episode # 5- Merry Christmas and Thank you!!!
Liz (@SisterScrappy) and I (@ashleighlowther) having another chat.... so we just wanted to get something out to you guys about why we have been so quiet but to recognise what we have achieved this year (8 months) thanks to your support.
So firstly sorry this isn't a specific learning podcast and more of a review of some cool things (in our opinion) that have happened for ED nurse education in 2018. See my accompanying blog here.
We hope you enjoy and as always are very open to suggestions, we need your ideas and feedback about what you want- if you tell us we will do our best to get it done.
Much love and please have a really great festive season people!! Keep doing the amazing work you do in #TeamED
