Education is at the core of the Indian Society of Clinical Toxicology’s (ISCT) mission to improve the management of toxicological emergencies in India. The ISCT is committed to providing comprehensive toxicology education through a variety of platforms, including workshops, online courses, seminars, and conferences. These educational initiatives are designed to enhance the knowledge and skills of healthcare professionals, from doctors and nurses to emergency responders, enabling them to recognize, diagnose, and treat toxicological cases effectively.
The society regularly organizes training programs for clinicians at all levels, with a focus on practical skills and real-world case studies. Additionally, the ISCT collaborates with universities, medical colleges, and professional societies to offer specialized toxicology courses and certifications. These programs not only increase awareness of toxicological issues but also build capacity in critical care and emergency response, particularly in rural and underserved areas.
Through the promotion of toxicology education, the ISCT aims to ensure that all healthcare professionals are well-prepared to tackle the growing burden of poisonings and toxic exposures in India. The society also prioritizes continuous learning, ensuring that practitioners are equipped with the latest scientific advancements and best practices in the field of toxicology.
