Medical Support Unit (MSU-1)

Welcome to the Medical Support Unit (MSU-1) Course for WMed residents and EMS fellows.  The course is intended to provide a foundation for residents starting on MSU-1 as well as to serve as a refresher for experienced MSU-1 residents and fellows.  The course is organized in various modules and is intended to be self-paced (within reason).  For the most part, the modules can be completed sequentially or non-sequentially based on your interest in the topics.  Some modules might be more important than others to do earlier in the course as you begin to rotate onto MSU-1 for your orientation shifts.  Some modules include links and instructions to access other online courses that must be completed. These may require you to upload a copy of a course completion certificate.

Before staffing MSU-1 by yourself, you must satisfactorily complete all course modules and key competencies, including the final written exam.  We believe the the MSU-1 Program is a great opportunity for our residents and will make you a better emergency physician.  However, with this opportunity there is substantial responsibility.  We hope that you enjoy this course and, more importantly, the course helps you get the best possible experience from the MSU-1 Program.
