Purpose-built for faith-based organisations, mission teams, NGOs and enterprises planning medical, ministry or field activities in tropical and remote regions. Drawing on Dr Adejobi Adeloye's decades of frontline humanitarian and emergency work across 70+ countries, this course prepares teams for the health risks and logistical realities that standard first-aid training overlooks.
You'll learn to prevent and manage tropical illnesses, respond to field emergencies with limited resources, plan for medical evacuation, and execute a safe repatriation when a team member must return home for care.
