In this latest episode I am joined by Dr Matt Creed, a Consultant in Anaesthetics, Major Trauma and Pre-Hospital Emergency Medicine based in Cardiff. Matt has been active in pre-hospital care for over a decade, having worked with a number of different services in both England and Wales.

In this episode we discuss how to get involved in pre-hospital care, the history of the BASICS scheme and some of the latest PHEM research, exploring how it can be applied in wilderness and austere settings.
