Global Health Opportunity

I am currently working on a global health project involving teaching first-aid / initial stabilization emergency care as well as visual triage skills to a “lay person” audience. The planned deliverables would be (1) a physical printed manual on these topics and (2) creation of a training program including skills sessions as well as simulations.

Ideally, this would require a 4 month commitment — this could easily become someone’s scholarly project if they would like!

If you’re interested in getting involved in a small portion of this but not a full 4 months, depending on interest we could discuss this further as well

Notably: If you are a senior resident with an elective around this coming June / July, there is likely an opportunity for a 10d international trip in order to deliver the training in-person. We will do our very best to ensure that costs are covered for your travel expenses.
