Are you coming in march 2009?
then read this! This is a course designed for physicians,
residents, and medical students. We accept physicians (CME on request),
residents from approved graduate medical education programs, Phase 3 medical
students from the University of New Mexico, and as extern medical students. All
participants must have completed six weeks of medicine, six weeks of surgery,
and another month of a primary care specialty rotation. Physicians may be from
any specialty. International participants are also welcome. Beware - we take
only twenty participants (maximum) - so sign up early!
Our course fee is $495 per
participant; payable to "UNM Department of Emergency Medicine". You are not in
the class until payment is received; you will receive a confirmation letter
thereafter that you are in the class. Because of the need to plan each course in
advance, full refunds are granted if cancellation occurs prior to January 16;
otherwise, a refund minus $100 will be returned if cancellation occurs up to the
day before the class. Full refunds are granted to those on the waiting list who
do not get into the class.
The fee does not include housing
(we have a list of cheap housing), or equipment rental. But, it's still a great
deal – most wilderness medicine conferences charge a lot more for only a few
days of conference in a big auditorium, with additional surcharges for "hands -
on" classes. You won't find a better course for the money (VALUE).
We offer this month-long course
in March of each year. This is an ideal time in New Mexico, where the outdoor
teaching environment is suited for winter and summer outdoor activities. We
guarantee that this popular course will be one of the best experiences in your
career! We also offer week-long courses in high altitude and diving medicine,
survival, and certification courses (WALS or AWLS). We also host a disaster and
remote medicine course in October. Please email
dmacias@salud.unm.edu for details.
To register, call Annette Lucero
at (505) 272-5526 or email at AnLucero@salud.unm.edu , who
will provide you with registration information. Please send your CV, as well as, information
regarding your outdoor or travel experience. We use this information to tailor
the course for you.
