Since February 2017 we have had a Sonographer Educator in ED. Janine Lister is a highly experienced general sonographer who previously worked at TSH for over 20 years. Her primary role is in the credentialing of ED consultants, a longer term aim of which is to facilitate US education (and credentialing) of the wider group of ED trainees.
Below are a number or documents which expand on the role of the SEED and give guidance on implementing this model in other EDs:
