EDITOR,--Anthony Avery and Mike Pringle emphasise the importance of emergency care in general practice.1 I commend to readers the certificate course in prehospital emergency care run jointly by the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh and the British Association for Immediate Care (BASICS). The first course was held in March 1993. I recently attended one of these three day courses and found it an ideal way of updating and advancing my knowledge and practical skills in emergency care (trauma, medical, paediatric, obstetric); there was the added benefit of meeting the other participants (doctors, paramedics, and nurses). The course ends with a formal assessment. For further details of this course and other more advanced training by BASICS, readers should write to Dr J Scott, BASICS Education, 34A Woollards Lane, Great Shelford, Cambridge CB2 5LZ.
