Pre-veterinary Care
Date: Tuesday 17 September 2024
Time: 1:00 PM - 5:00 PM
Cost: $80 (includes afternoon tea)
Working dogs are valuable serving members and we have a moral responsibility to provide them with appropriate health support. The basic principles of trauma care are similar regardless of species. However, the canine casualty is not just a small adult human. These differences do have an impact on the assessment and management of canine trauma casualties.
The Pre-veterinary care workshop is designed to inspire health practitioners who are usually pre-occupied with treating the human mammal in an operational environment but may also be confronted with the working canines attached to them.
The workshop aims to address the contextual challenges of dealing with canine trauma using outcome focused scenario training. You will be guided by ADF Veterinarian and Senior Medical Technician and have the opportunity to participate in a range of skills using the “Diesel” K9 Training Simulation Aid. Topics covered will include fundamentals of canine casualty care including approach, monitoring vitals, CPR and patient movement techniques. You will get an opportunity to apply treatment for fracture stabilisation and management of massive haemorrhage using the “Diesel” K9 training aid mannequin.

Cost: $50 (includes morning tea)
TacMed Australia & North American Rescue will be delivering a half-day workshop on the capability, advantages and pitfalls of the use of high-fidelity manikins in delivering immersive reality based medical training in tactical & high-risk environments. From classroom based skills, TCCC battle lanes to full mission profiles, a high fidelity trauma manikin can provide the ability to enhance training from the point of injury to the transfer to higher care.
