Representing the Members and Fellows of RCEM in India.
The Members and Fellows of the Royal college of Emergency medicine in India are amongst the early UK Certified
Emergency Physicians shaping the Emergency landscape in the subcontinent. Having been successful in a relatively new and robust
system of assessment in the form OSCEs and SAQs, they are quietly making their mark in India albeit mostly in the private acute care settings in India.
While this guild strives to remain academic, there is an undeniable need to set up a unifying body to safeguard the interests of this group of clinicians who are
committed to the specialty and to nurture their talents in delivering quality emergency care in India.
I welcome all the Fellows and Members of the Royal College of Emergency Medicine (UK) from India to join the Guild.
