Objectifs
- Créer et publier un programme national standard pour les cours de médecine de la nature au Canada.
- Collaborer avec les prestataires de formation en ce qui concerne le contenu des cours et les certifications.
- Ensure providers are offering courses that meet the national standards
Courtney Thompson - Committee Co-Chair
My name is Courtney Thompson and I'm a rural family medicine and ER physician based on Vancouver Island. I've been involved with wilderness medicine since medical school and have taught many wilderness medical courses over my career. I have my DiMM and work actively in the prehospital/wilderness and mountain setting. I'm currently a ski-hill doc at Mount Washington, a ski patroller at Mount Cain and a medical director/member of the Advanced Medical Team for the Comox Valley SAR. I'm passionate about wilderness medicine education and love the mountains! You can find me chasing my 2 y.o around the bike trails of Cumberland, camping, mountain biking or gravel riding.
