Excellent course- very well run with lots of simulation in the field to consolidate knowledge learned during interactive tutorial-based sessions. The course had very experienced instructors who had fountains of knowledge in a wide variety of wilderness medicine areas. Would highly recommend this course for anyone interested in prehospital or adventure medicine. -Aed, GP trainee

Excellent to get a feel for medicine in the outdoors, class faculty, and even surf lessons. What’s not to love? Bernhard, EM SHO

What a weekend! The knowledge of pre-hospital and emergency medicine shared with us by instructors throughout the weekend was phenomenal. Came out on such a high after learning more than I could have imagined and gaining life-saving skills for not just emergency, but everyday life. Think West Coast of Ireland, Mountain rescue, Water Safety, with some surf, craic, yoga and unbeatable food and accommodation - the experience of a lifetime! Thanks guys. Louis, Paediatric Nurse
