About FCPS in Las Vegas:
First Choice is a great place to refresh your all-around ultrasound skills! Trainings are staffed with 4 RDMS’s as well as additional qualified personnel averaging 8-15 scans per day,
As a new or experienced Sonographer, it is important to keep your skills updated and reviewed by a qualified RDMS. The art of scanning requires cultivation and time to be perfected. AWHONN and SDMS require that one stays competent in their area of practice through continuing education. The 3-Day Refresher Course is designed to improve image optimization, interpretation, and scanning skills. For new nurses, an additional 50-75 scans will be needed and verified by an RDMS until competency is completed and certified. Our staff can provide additional on-line support and review scanning techniques upon request. The didactic portion of the course consists of 9 – 12 hours of remote training which includes recorded on-line sessions, a digital workbook, PowerPoint presentation, and instructional YouTube videos. This revised program will allow more time for students to learn the material and review recorded sessions at any time for refreshing skills. The hands-on sessions will focus on scanning techniques and allow for more supervised scans. The staff and associates are licensed skilled sonographers, medical professionals, and educators trained in the Pregnancy Center setting. The course is compliant with the AWHONN, AGOG, SDMS, AIUM guidelines and recommended by the National Pregnancy Organizations of Care Net and Heartbeat.
