Medical Assistance in Challenging Environments [MACE] Intermediate
Providing medical care when remote from medical facilities is difficult, it might be the climate, the terrain or the political situation, but providing medical care in challenging environments requires confidence. This confidence can be developed and maintained by realistic and practical training.
