Welcome back! In this episode the gang discusses some common issues with training and more specifically, verbalization training. As the title suggests we are pushing for effective use and advocating for you to get more hands on in your training program. Verbalization can be a powerful tool, but it needs to be used appropriately. In many cases though hands on skills iterations are being replaced by lazy training practices, because it is easier, cheaper, and requires less planning on the instructors part. This has led to some bad outcomes and some unrealistic field expectations.

A zero-sum game is a situation in which one person's gain is equivalent to another's loss, so that the net change in wealth or benefit is zero. In the rescue world this means we only risk what is equal to our projected outcome. However, that is never the case in a rescue! We are always going to risk more than we receive. That means there is always the possibility that someone will not be coming home. 

Join us as we explore the controversy of risk and why the concept of "everyone goes home" has possibly made us so risk adverse that we may not be as effective in the field as we think. 

In episode one we will explore a little bit of why wilderness medicine is something of interest to a few different aspect of medicine. We also gain the perspectives of a few participants in our Wilderness & Expedition Medicine Symposium. Check it out!
