Advanced Hazmat Life Support - SAVE THE DATES
I'm very excited to announce that AHLS is coming to BC (Advanced Hazmat Life Support - www.ahls.org). AHLS is a two-day provider course, and the most comprehensive training program to provide the critical skills needed to treat victims exposed to toxic substances. Working with DPIC (the Poison Control Center), BC Ambulance's CBRNE/Hazmat Program, and OHM Medical, we have managed to organize two leadership courses for 2012. We are pleased to announce that Dr. Frank Walter himself, the Founder of AHLS and a renowned Toxicologist from the States, will be coming up to offer both the Provider Course and the Instructor Courses on May 11-13 (Lower Mainland) and September 26-28 (Whistler; assoc with SPH Emergency Medicine Update Conference).
