About Us
Salient Training in Emergency Medicine International, STEMI
was formed in 2004 to address the emergency medical training
needs of doctors, nurses, and other healthcare professionals
currently in postgraduate training, or in existing practice in Australia.
Understanding the challenges facing clinician participation with continuing education programs, STEMI provides a highly flexible system to overcome these obstacles. Small classes, taught on-site using salient information and delivery methods, are the cornerstones of the STEMI system. Rather than promoting a “cookie cutter” model, where courses are blindly developed, STEMI develops courses around the industry and clinicians’ needs at varying levels.
Courses are taught by senior instructors, with extensive backgrounds in emergency medicine, in small classes of your peers, on-site at your facility/office. All instructors have a minimum of 5 years instructing experience, and are well versed with medical emergency treatments in the pre-hospital and hospital setting. All presented information requires a minimum of 2 independent reviews, often one from an accrediting college or your organization (hospital, surgery, school, etc), and sourcing to Australian and international protocols prior to delivery. We’ve taken that extra step to ensure you will have the very best instructors with the very best information- always!
STEMI enjoys relationships with numerous international institutions and experts, granting unparalleled access to information, and research worldwide.
