"How can I get
hands-on experience in Wilderness Medicine?"
Nearly 100 of our
National Parks, National Monuments, and Recreation Areas have
no volunteer physician medical advisor. This is a great
opportunity for members of the Wilderness Medical Society,
including non-physician members and medical students. Most
National Parks would welcome the opportunity to work with
medically trained WMS members to help with their training and
educational needs.
Members who live near a National Park, Monument, or Recreation
Area may contact the local EMS coordinator to inquire about
medical advisor requirements and a job description, or contact
Dan Pontbriand, National Park Service Branch Chief EMS, at
