TALK: Wilderness Medicine – Emergencies, Improvisation and Survival http://www.royalmedical.co.uk/2012/10/16/talk-wilderness-medicine-emergencies-improvisation-and-survival/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=talk-wilderness-medicine-emergencies-improvisation-and-survival http://www.royalmedical.co.uk/2012/10/16/talk-wilderness-medicine-emergencies-improvisation-and-survival/#comments Tue, 16 Oct 2012 11:16:48 +0000 Muhamed Farhan-Alanie http://www.royalmedical.co.uk/?p=1404

Continue reading »]]> This week’s talk will be given by Dr. Sandy Reid who will be speaking to you all about the exciting and ever changing topic of Wilderness Medicine.

Defined as “vital emergency care in remote settings”, wilderness medicine covers a host of topics relating to medical applications in expedition, outdoor sport and fieldcraft settings. It’s very different from the hospital-based medicine we learn on our course and is always an eye-opener.

So if you’ve ever done a Duke of Edinburgh’s Award expedition, are an outdoor sportsperson or are just keen to learn about some interesting applications of medicine outside the 4 walls of a hospital, come along next Tuesday to what promises to be a packed talk.

For those of you who may be interested in wilderness medicine yourself, check out Edinburgh’s Wilderness Medicine Society’s page: https://www.facebook.com/groups/109672531525/

Date of Talk: Tuesday 16th October
Time: 19:45 for a 20:00 sharp start
