This podcast was recorded at 0900 on the 20th March 2020 - information discussed is likely to change quickly.

We have finally managed to align the stars such that Dr David Sorrell, Director of Clinical Training, can join us to discuss some recent podcasts.
We discuss the recent Urgent Bite on low risk antibiotic reactions and last month's CME interview on Sepsis.
We also look forward to the Goodfellow Symposium at the end of March.
If you are an Urgent Care clinician and would like to join us each month to discuss matters relating to Urgent Care, please email podcast@rnzcuc.org.nz You do not need any special equipment, a mobile phone will suffice. Would be great to get lots of different UC voices together to chat once a month.
