The POCUS HeartFocus Certification program validates a clinician's ability to perform high‑quality, AI‑enabled cardiac ultrasound through structured education, hands‑on scanning, and expert review. It gives individuals a clear path to competency and gives programs a consistent standard to certify against.

With the latest update, the HeartFocus app is now accessible on both Apple and Android and works with any ultrasound device that uses the Link add‑on, so clinicians aren't tied to a specific device and teams aren't limited by a single hardware platform.
