Join Dr. Jamin Mulvey of STARS, Dr. Ira Carson and Kevin Palmer from Banff EMS as they explore their 2021 work published in the Journal of Wilderness and Environmental Medicine, on pre-hospital shoulder reduction. It’s going to be a rare treat to actually be able to discuss the literature with the authors, so I hope you can join us for what will be a fantastic session!
The paper is open access, and can be found at the following DOI: https://doi.org/10.1016/j.wem.2021.07.007
Look forward to seeing you all there!
The Zoom invite for the March meeting will be sent out a few days prior to the meeting.
