Air Medical Course

CAMATA has developed a Air Medical Training Course with a Canadian perspective. These programs have been distributed across Canada and have been adopted by a number of provincial authorities as the required preparation for air medical providers in that jurisdiction.

THE COURSE COVERS THE FOLLOWING CONCEPTS:

• Introduction to interfacility and first response air medical transport, including long distances repatriation.
• Aviation Physiology as it relates to the air medical provider.
• Patient Care considerations related to air medical transport
• Practical considerations related to first response transport, interfacility transport and long distance repatriation including international transportation.
• Aviation Considerations including legislation impacting the air medical provider
• Safety in the Air Medical environment, including aircrew safety and fitness
• Communications in the Aviation Environment
• Infection Prevention and Control for the Air Medical Services
• Survival Search & Rescue
• Management of the Air Medical Service

A renewal program is available for those who took the Air Medical Training Program Level I, and require a review. Additional educational programs are developed or under development for delivery to CAMATA members including an air medical course for aviation personnel and an air medical training program for advanced providers. Stay tuned for updates on our website about new programs as they are developed.

CAMATA offers programs in both English and French languages!
