New Diving Medicine course launched in Oman

18th - 24th October 2008, BANDAR KHAIRAN - OMAN
Numbers are strictly limited on what promises to be superb course- make sure you sign up early to avoid disappointment  

We at Expedition Medicine are very excited at being able to offer an inspirational course for all those medical professionals responsible for clients or expedition team members in a diving or marine environment.  

The course is based in Oman a country which as recently emerged from its self imposed isolation, revealing a land of friendly people and dramatic landscapes bordered by an incredibly rich marine environment . We will be scuba diving in the Bandar Khairan area an area of outstanding natural beauty, boasting rocky outcrops, deserted beaches and small islands accessible only by boat. The underwater scenery is similarly dramatic with picturesque walls and reefs festooned with healthy corals and teeming with marine life. 

Expedition Medicine are very excited at being able to offer an inspirational course for all those medical professionals responsible for clients or expedition team members in a diving or marine environment.  The course aims to introduce participants to the skills required to manage the common medical problems, which may emerge in a diving or marine environment. 

The expedition medicine team will develop the skills of the participants through a combination of practical sessions and evening lectures. This is a comprehensive course, which aims to use the daylight hours on or under the water: diving, kayaking, boat handling, managing medical emergencies at sea, camp craft, night diving and more. The evening will be spent in a beach front tented camp on the edge of the sea, covering the more academic elements of the course.
