As we continue to build a generation of life savers.
We are holding a session on epistaxis with Dr Tukamwesiga Naboth on Monday, 21st September 2026 in the EM lecture theatre.
Looking forward to seeing you there as we learn how to manage one of the most common ENT emergencies.
Learning in emergency medicine goes beyond textbooks—it’s about improving care!
On Thursday, 3rd-year residents presented their Quality Improvement projects. It was an inspiring session and a great benchmark for junior residents starting their own QI journeys.
