Be Trauma Confident CPD Day
In major trauma, every action counts. The ability to recognise, prioritise, and treat life-threatening injuries in those first few minutes can make the difference between survival and loss.
This hands-on, skills-focused day has been developed by our own veteran military medics with real-world experience in high-pressure environments. It is designed to prepare pre-hospital clinicians to deliver effective trauma care with confidence and precision.
Feedback and studies show that many pre-hospital clinicians want more CPD opportunities in trauma care. This course offers a targeted, affordable way to refresh and advance your skills.
