Ever wondered what to do if you were the first person at an RTA? Or if a call is put out for a medic on a plane? Could you help a stabbing victim with what you’ve got in front of you?
Come join us for hands-on teaching sessions every Thursday, where you’ll learn the A-E’s and beyond of managing medical emergencies, even before your clinical years!
Through simulated patient scenarios, learn how to identify and manage extreme environments from blistering heat and bitter cold, to altitude and dive medicine, trauma care, and major incident management (Just to name a few!) Our weekly sessions centre around teaching by senior students, doctors and guest speakers in specialist fields as well as careers talks about expedition, wilderness & prehospital medicine.
But don’t worry, we’re also a very social society! We catch up at the pub after sessions and host bar crawls, pub quizzes and other events. Drinkers and non drinkers are welcome!
One of the best events of the wilderness calendar year is our Intro Weekend! It features an immersive weekend of workshops by day, a search & rescue mission by night, culminating in a simulated mass casualty scenario. This is an experience like no other and is suitable for all year groups and non medicine students.Tickets are limited so keep an eye out for the release date!
If you’re keen to escape the city why not join us for one of our Wilderwalks? Although we are partial to the occasional mountain, it is far from all we get up to and we host some more gentle walks also (of course including a pub stop at the end)!
Keep an eye on our socials for our upcoming Intro to A-E Sessions where you can get hands on in some fun scenarios and meet the Wilderness team! Get stuck in and get out there. The wilderness, urban or rural, awaits...
