Many academic Emergency Departments are staffed by non-EM residents. Dr. Amer Aldeen and his super-star team from Northwestern created NURRC Modules (Northwestern University Rotating Resident Curriculum). These modules allow the off-service residents, who all have different schedules, to learn key EM-based topics at their own leisure and convenience.
The positive effect of the curriculum on the off-service residents’ medical knowledge was recently published in Academic Emergency Medicine

Thanks to the team for agreeing to make these videos free for everyone to use.
I hope I wasn’t too pushy or forward in asking for the videos… and then asking if I could post then all on YouTube! Such a great resource shouldn’t live behind closed doors. I’ll post the other 3 videos once I receive them from Amer.
