The RAMM course is a 7-day advanced level course which is designed to expand the suite of skills and knowledge available to those who already have training in the field of Pre-Hospital Care. It was developed in association with Senior Clinical Lecturers in Paramedic Science at Birmingham City University, as well as expedition doctors.
This course is suitable for doctors, paramedics, EMTs, nurses, expedition leaders, close protection medics, those providing medical support for exploration sectors (oil, gas, minerals, etc), and media medical cover, as well as those operating independently in remote and hostile environments. It includes numerous case studies, and indoor, outdoor, and night time scenarios. These scenarios include everyday incidents and those likely to be encountered in wilderness, remote, and/or hostile environments. Pre-requisites apply in order to attend this course. Students must have an in-date First Person on Scene qualification, or other advanced first aid certificate.
The course requires pre-reading and two manuals are provided: a Royal College of Surgeons (Edin.) manual, RAMM manual, and online material.
