Wound Care Class February 18
The makers of Expedition Medical
Chests are offering a hands-on class in wound care, specifically targeted to cruisers. Even though most medical kits come with how-to information, and there are a few good books on the market, most folks ignore this essential learning curve until someone is bleeding like crazy. This is not the time to start Googling for answers, or thumbing through your on- board medical text with one hand while stanching blood flow with the other. Kirsten Hansen is a nurse with 20
years in the field, “I've included the materials I'd expect to reach for in an emergency room," she says. “I know from experience that this stuff works.” But when you get beyond basic
Boater’s Swap Meet

will be there selling those items that you’ve been yearning for but couldn’t find, and
buying those items you’ve stored forever that someone really needs. It’s a bargain hunter’s paradise. And it’s FREE!

bandaging, there are a lot of tricks and techniques that can make a huge difference in the outcome of wound care away from medical support services. In this hands-on class, Kirsten will guide you through a succession of emergency scenarios, including some made up on the spot by students. Volunteers (or Kirsten's partner, in some cases) will be marked with simulated wounds, then students will treat them using the same high-quality supplies that are included in the medical chests. There will also be plenty of opportunity to ask questions, discuss previous injuries at sea and how they were (or should have been) handled, and get very familiar with the state-of- the-art in medical supplies. The class will be held at Fishermen's
Terminal in Seattle. To reserve your spot (class size is limited) or ask questions, email:
