Yesterday concluded with a full afternoon of practical skill review (Automated External Defibrillator; emergency shelter construction; GPS use) and an extended scenario that used these skills. Groups found patients in the water, safely moved their patients to shore, established a base camp with a fire and shelter, identified their location by map, compass and GPS, and planned for an evacuation and prepared for a night out in the rainforest. This morning we are back in the classroom, debriefing the scenarios, continuing with map and compass instruction, and learning about diabetes and anaphylaxis. In addition, we are adding emergency litter construction with tarps and ropes to the list of wilderness skills.
