Emergency Medicine Home Page
Welcome to the Emergency Medicine home page for ACCS.
Emergency medicine is unique in that all prospective trainees will complete training through ACCS (emergency medicine) for their first two years of training. Most trainees in ACCS will spend six months in emergency medicine during their ACCS training.
ACCS trainees with emergency medicine as their parent speciality will complete a third year of training at ST3 level in paediatrics and orthopaedics before being required to compete for ST4 posts.
