The WADEM Congress 2023. World Association for Disaster and Emergency Medicine (WADEM). 9-12 May 2023. Killarney. Ireland |
¡Buen trabajo todos los involucrados!Spending a few days at #wadem2023 and it started with a bang (literally) when Dr Mark Forrest & Jason van der Velde The ATACC Group delivered a truly immersive and interactive session on some aspects of Counter Terrorism Medicine. Especially care gaps, systems/community resilience and different aspects on training. Building the learning on an evolving attack at the venue. Discussing concepts like the Zero responders and Stop the Bleed to Tactical Emergency Medical Support and embedded physicians in intervention teams. I personally liked that they raised the issue of how to handle an attack in a rural area.
Great work everyone involved!https://congress.wadem.org/
