The waves are relentless. The deck is slick. A crew member collapses. You’re miles from shore. The radio crackles, evacuation isn’t an option. What do you do? Delivering medical care on land is one thing, but at sea... everything changes. There’s no hospital down the road. Casualties are treated in cramped, unstable spaces. Rescue depends on the weather, the tides, and a well-executed plan. This is Ocean Medicine. For medics supporting offshore expeditions, dive teams, ocean rowers, and remote maritime operations, it’s essential to be prepared for the realities of providing care in unpredictable environments. That’s where our Ocean Medicine Course comes in. Learn how to manage drowning, hypothermia, and cold water shock Gain hands-on training in ocean rescue and confined-space trauma care Develop critical skills in dive medicine, evacuation, and marine survival Train with experts in offshore and expedition medicine "This course completely changed my perspective on what’s possible. The water rescue simulations were unlike anything I’d ever experienced it’s a different world out there.” – Ocean Medicine Course Attendee 📍 Brixham, Devon | 26–29 May 2025 🎓 28.5 CPD hours accredited by the Royal College of Surgeons of Edinburgh ⏳ Limited places – secure your place today.
