Help for Medical MBs

[Beavah 205]

Yah, Cpt. Green seemed to post this on a bunch of "dead" threads, so I figured I'd post his query in a fresh thread so folks could respond:

 

As a part of my Wood Badge ticket I am putting on a "Medical Merit Badge Midway" for my district. I have the potential instructors for it but I would like to know if anyone has out there has any power point presentations (or other another type) for Medicine, Dentistry, Public Health or Veterinary Medicine? If you do it would be greatly appreciated.

Beavah,

 

I had a few slides on lightning strikes presented to a Wilderness Medical Society (WMS) course. I will try to find them. The WMS has a great set of slides on CD. Here is their description:

 

The Wilderness Medical Society developed an educational lecture series on 11 wilderness medicine topics: Accidental Hypothermia, Biodiversity Loss, Traveler's Diarrhea, Field Water Disinfection, Frostbite, Hazardous Marine Life, High Altitude Medicine, Orthopedic Trauma, Wilderness Dermatology, Venomous Snakebite Management,and Wild Animal Attacks. For our special Spring promotion, we've compiled all 11 topics on one convenient, space-saving PowerPoint CD. Each lecture contains more than 70 colorful images and a lecturer's study guide (printable from the CD). The lectures were written by expert members of the Wilderness Medical Society. The information presented is informative, factual, and up-to-date. These lectures are ideally suited for a broad range of audiences including practicing physician, residents, and medical students. They also may be useful for instructing pre-hospital personnel, guides, emergency technicians, and other wilderness users. Note: Purchased individually, this collection would cost $643.50 for members and $841.50 for non-members.

 

Pricey but very good.

Thanks for the help. Still kind of new to this. I was just looking at topics and posting. Thought it might help for my soon to be merit badge councilors if I could give them something to work off of. CPT Green
