Wowee – August has come to a close so quickly…
which for Victorians in particular means it’s AFL Footy Finals Season. It also means spring is here – the wattle is blooming and the magpies swooping!

I can’t describe how excited I am about our next #POCUS club… Ever wanted to move on from basic echo to haemodynamic assessment but were too afraid to ask? Need to know what is & isn’t OK in the minefield of intermediate echo? Or just want to know what all the fuss is about? pic.twitter.com/cnAPuuFVdx
