Emedex International

Educational exchange in the global emergency medicine community is the cornerstone of our mission. By providing medical students, nursing staff, pre-hospital staff, residents and faculty with opportunities to work in emergency services in other countries, we can help to develop their skills in delivering emergency care. They will also develop experience in administration, teaching, and navigating cultural differences in foreign communities. In exchange, we will be able to provide visiting colleagues with the opportunity to observe how we practice emergency medicine, and to acquire new skills and knowledge as a result of their participation in a visiting rotation. These rotations foster exchange of information in the IEM community, contribute to the growth of participants as people and as clinicians, and help to develop emergency medicine in countries that are working diligently to achieve independent specialty status for the field.
