TEAM Trauma
Trauma resuscitation is best applied by a multidisciplinary team. Frequent exposure to trauma and the presence of an advanced trauma surgical team are often unavailable in smaller communities.
The TEAM Trauma course embraces best practice science across all disciplines to offer an integrated approach to trauma care for the non-expert, non-dedicated team faced with trauma resuscitation.
