Far from Help

  11 and 12 February 2012, Oxford.

The Society has been running a weekend course, each March, with a company called Wilderness Medical Training (WMT) for many years. This Far from Help course is designed for anyone operating in remote areas where medical help is not readily available.

The course aims to develop judgment and ability to discriminate between conditions that can be managed and resolved in the field, those that should be monitored closely and those that require evacuation.

The RGS-IBG will not be hosting a WMT course in London this March. All enquiries about future Far from Help courses, which are being run at a number of venues around the UK, should be directed to contact@wildernessmedicaltraining.co.uk.
