2024 When Things Go Wrong in the Outdoors
Conference description
The Pacific Northwest has no shortage of natural wonders, but sometimes the great outdoors may not be so great. Whether it’s minor injuries like sprains and strains or natural hazards like extreme altitude, heat or cold, being prepared can make a difference. By attending this conference participants will increase their knowledge of key aspects of wilderness medicine, plus be able to advise patients (and friends) heading to the outdoors.
