This is really cool, and a great idea! I had no idea someone was selling this. The kit I looked at on their website is $3400, which seems a bit steep to me. Hopefully someone can get some use of the free stuff posted above!

Princess Aiko delivers first official address
Princess Aiko delivered an address at the opening ceremony of the 23rd meeting of the World Association for Disaster and Emergency Medicine (WADEM) in Tokyo on Saturday. It was the first time the daughter of Emperor Naruhito and Empress Masako has made an address as part of her official duty. The princess noted that Japan has overhauled and upgraded its medical system through its experiences with major disasters, such as the 1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake and the 2011 Great East Japan Earthquake. 'I believe this meeting is a meaningful opportunity to pass on your rich experiences and knowledge to young

Have any of you tried the online cybersecurity simulation game “Hackable Hospital”? It was a EUSEM and will be at WADEM or can be accessed through it’s website. After initial success I am now totally stuck- super frustrating. You would crush it in a blink of your eye @oplopanax.ca #medsky

A high quality syllabus for “Immediate Self Aid for Lone Workers“ appears to be nonexistent.Most first aid depends on a person other than the injured party delivering the first aid. There is a UK “ severely injured “ course which covers application of TQ but that’s all I can find.
