Hippoed Urgent Care Bootcamp 2026 (Videos + Slides)

Hippo’s Urgent Care Bootcamp reviews the clinical and procedural work of an urgent care practice. Acute complaints, infections, injuries and pediatric presentations sit alongside decisions about testing, emergency referral and follow-up. The curriculum includes wound repair, anesthesia and nerve blocks, ENT and eye procedures, joint reduction, splinting, X-ray and ECG interpretation, and point-of-care ultrasound. Developed with the Urgent Care Association and College of Urgent Care Medicine, the original course uses short, conversational teaching, typically in 10–20 minute segments. This listing provides videos and slides, with the faculty and existing subject outline retained below.

Package scope: The store-listed 2026 edition is not independently confirmed as a distinct revision; the cited curriculum is dated 2025. The publisher’s 200+ videos and 50+ hours are not verified delivered-file totals. Hippo accounts, apps, assessments, QBank access, progress tracking, pass guarantees and provider-hosted extras are not included.
