Jarrod Bell is a wilderness intensive care paramedic from Tasmania (Australia) - and a two-year EMS Global Foundation volunteer instructor in Ulaanbaatar. In this episode, Jarrod reflects on what draws a Tasmanian paramedic back to Mongolia for a second year: the adaptability and workload of Mongolia's ambulance doctors, the overlooked importance of environmental control in extreme cold and what a negative 40 degrees car rollover scenario teaches you about prehospital priorities. He also shares how working here has changed his sense of what paramedicine can achieve.
