Battlefield Healthcare 2011



The Battlefield Healthcare conference has been held annually in Europe since 2008 and with delegates from across the globe attending the last meeting in March 2010, it is widely considered to be the most influential and important battlefield healthcare conference in Europe.

This event will explore the challenges faced and lessons learnt by practising clinicians and senior military medical officers across the entire casualty care lifecycle. Focussing on tactical level care, through to aero medical evacuation, field level care and recovery and rehabilitation of military personnel. This year’s special focus will be on the challenges and developments in Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC) and the ‘platinum 10 minutes.’ Battlefield Healthcare 2011 is a vital learning opportunity for all concerned with military medical care.

The event is attended by Medics, Nurses, Medical Commanders, Surgeons and Doctors, as well as serving Surgeon Generals. Also represented are the senior management of the leading industry contractors providing healthcare capabilities to the military.

*Also in 2011, Defence IQ will bring you an exclusive pre-conference focus day on Military Medical Training – more details to follow*

Plus: This year, we have moved the conference to Birmingham, the home of UK defence medicine to ensure UK MoD personnel can take part. Therefore, all serving UK MoD medical personnel will qualify for a free guest pass to the entire event.
