Remote Medicine for the Advanced Provider
Advanced Life Support (ALS) providers—including paramedics, nurses, physician assistants, and physicians—possess a sophisticated medical skill set honed for resource-rich environments. However, when these professionals are deployed to remote, austere, or post-disaster settings, the fundamental assumptions of their training are inverted. The RMAP™ course is an intensive, 6-day in-person program engineered specifically for these practitioners. It serves as the critical bridge, adapting high-level medical knowledge to the realities of prolonged field care where resources are scarce and evacuation is uncertain. By offering up to 56 hours of CAPCE-approved continuing education and fulfilling NREMT paramedic refresher requirements, RMAP™ provides a single, definitive pathway for advanced providers to master the art and science of expeditionary medicine.
