Description
This course is ideally suited to those to those that will travel in a context where a hospital may be hours away. The main focus is the prolonged care and stabilization of patients until a rescue team or additional resources can be obtained to help with evacuation. A judgment-based approach in critical thinking to successfully dealing with medical emergencies in a remote setting is applied. Learning Working to improvised equipment and anticipate potential risks to your patient are a major component of this course. Advanced medical techniques learned include anaphylaxis management, spine clearing exam, wound cleaning, and CPR cessation.
