Team Training - Medical

27 Nov 11

Team members have now completed the 'casualty care' training season. All members are trained to a 'basic' standard so that whoever is first to arrive with a casualty they can make a big difference. They can start assessing the ABC's (airway, breathing, circulation) and undertake life saving treatment. Backed up by the range of increasingly sophisticated medical equipment and skills of 'Advanced Casualty Care' members, Team doctors the casualty can be treated irrespective of location or weather. Team medical training and then (the dreaded) examinations continue in to early December.

Team members undertake a resusitation practice on Resusi Anni
And the good news is that we now have 11 more members validated as Casualty Carers to the Basic Level. More members helping to save lives in "wild and remote places"
