  • Is there a future of Emergency Medicine for doctors when increasing numbers of positions are unfilled in Australia, UK and now the US
    In Countries like India MD and Pakistan FCPS EM program are still not preferred specialist training options. Is the thrill and adrenaline still enough to sustain ED or is it the time for migrant doctors to claim this territory like primary care

    One thing I would like to suggest that please make a video for different ways doctors working in the UK could move to Australia. Especially those who have done Mrcp and Mrcem!!

    *In this capitalist world, there are always 4 types of person :*
    1. Those who dont have money, and dont have time = Usually employees with minimum wages, live from paycheck to paycheck.
    2. Those who dont have money, but have plenty of time = One who unemployed, Fresh migrant doctors that still look for work.
    3. Those who DO have money, BUT dont have time = Think Busy Business owner, Professional, Specialist doctors you are talking.
    4. Those who DO have money, and DO have time = Sleeping Shareholders of a Wonderful Business(es). where people working for him/her and get salary and bonuses, BUT when the companies get high profit. All the profit go to the ultimate shareholders.
    Becoming doctors are not to be rich. There is a VERY WRONG WAY of thinking that I realized. If the goal is want to be Rich, Go become businessman, Bankers, and Investor. Please look at the 10 or 20 richest man in Australia (Even in the world). NONE OF THEM IS A DOCTOR. Choose Wisely.

      Why you guys always seem dumb. People ask about money only to ensure if they will be fairly compensated for the time and effort they will put in when working as a doctor. The goal is not to be rich, the goal is to be fairly paid for the 10-15 years we gonna put in that profession. "Choose wisely" ? dumbfuk

    I want to convey my deepest appreciation for such a perfectly detailed video on Emergency Medicine that I have been searching for the past few months...
    I have a question though. w
    What are the opportunities of a UK trained Emergency Medicine consultant in Australia?
    I am planning to get into ACCS (EM) training in UK but want to move to australia in future.

    • @montymetc6104
      @montymetc6104 3 місяці тому

      I’d just do the training in Aus if you can - you have much more control of your future as an ACEM trainee than ACCS and SpR in UK. The training in Australasia is epic.

    Sir, your your work for Doctors Community is just matchless. Please keep making such a valuable content. I want to know if someone secures job in Australia after AMC part 1 & limited AHPRA reg, will the fee of AMC2 be sponsored by AMC/Employer as exams/courses fees are sponsored by NHS?

    Sir regarding work experience gap, you said its acceptable uptil one year, after that, the compensation is 4 weeks full time duty for every year and you meant clinical work experience. My question is, can a teaching experience also work as an alternative for an IMG to avoid gap, even if he wants to pursue clinical career in Australia?

  • @mrvortem9566
    @mrvortem9566 4 місяці тому +11

    1)Shift work is NOT hard, it is MADE hard by stupid rota managers who think it is acceptable for a doctor to do Friday Saturday SUnday nights, 1 day off, Tuesday Wednesday days, then Friday Saturday Sunday again nights. You will hear things like "oh it is EWTD compliant", yea sure but it is not COMMON SENSE compliant.
    2) you are right regarding jobs, 10 years ago you could walk into a metro ED and get a contract, now its reasonably difficult even in some rural EDs, I am not very optimistic on consultant jobs in the future
    3) don't forget one of the biggest turnoffs/fears for doctors. ACEM Primary exam
    4) please don't jump on the bandwagon of PA/ANP like many sellout consultants have. They are mediocre clinicians who have nothing to offer compared to doctors. Just like the UK they will start by saying they are there to work alongside you and help, next thing you know they are asking for resus, RSI, drains, consultant jobs due to "seniority". Australia is the last castle of resistance against the malignant expansion of PA/ANP, and the dilution of what a doctor is, please Rizwan don't allow this nonsense to grow in your ED

    • @EmergencyFocus
      @EmergencyFocus  4 місяці тому +2

      Wonderful insights, I agree with most of your points … actually I too enjoy shift work. However don’t you think if NP and PA are able to do low acuity works like plasters suturing simple elderly issues then EM doctors can focus on real EM medicine of resuscitation critical and acute care ! 😊

    • @mrvortem9566
      @mrvortem9566 4 місяці тому +5

      this is the EXACT rationale used in the UK over 10 years ago. Now, in some EDs they do more resus than EM trainees. They are preferred by consultants for procedures like RSI, drains etc. They do the exact opposite of what they were recruited in the first place, PA/ANP running resus and EM AST doing minor injuries. A lot of UK staff left because of this malignant expansion, I expect there will be a lot of pushback in Australia. You can't take shortcuts in medical training, a MSc degree can't replace MBBS with fellowship exams. We take competent nurses and paramedics etc and turn them into mediocre clinicians, I honestly don't see the point, fix EM and ED chronic issues and (doctor) staff retention will improve.@@EmergencyFocus

      I thought there is still gap present in acute medicine specailities and getting job is easier as compared to PLAB.
      Currently I am Anaesthesia trainee in Pakistan
