2025 ADFM Annual Conference

The FM Department at the Zucker School of Medicine at Hofstra/Northwell created a GME POCUS program for the residents at the residency programs in the form of electives and a 12 week track (both ambulatory and inpatient). Simultaneously, the medical school had a UME curriculum for the students in POCUS starting from their first year. Upon the students entering the hospitals with their devices and entering residency programs, there was a need for credentialling of these individuals as well as the need for faculty to have the skills for oversight of new trainees. As such a standardized CME program was created along with delineation of privileges and credentialing guidelines.
